Chapter 146 |
| 1 | Praise ye the
LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. |
| 2 | While I live will I praise the
LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. |
| 3 | Put
not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no
help. |
| 4 |
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that
very day his thoughts perish. |
|
5 | Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob
for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: |
| 6 | Which made
heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for
ever: |
| 7 |
Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food
to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners: |
| 8 | The LORD
openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the
LORD loveth the righteous: |
|
9 | The LORD preserveth the strangers; he
relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside
down. |
| 10 |
The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all
generations. Praise ye the LORD. |
