| Chapter 146 |
1 | Praise ye Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul. |
2 | While I live will I praise Jehovah: 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 Jehovah his God: |
6 | Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that in them is; Who keepeth truth for ever; |
7 | Who executeth justice for the oppressed; Who giveth food to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners; |
8 | Jehovah openeth [the eyes of] the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous; |
9 | Jehovah preserveth the sojourners; He upholdeth the fatherless and widow; But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. |
10 | Jehovah will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye Jehovah. Psalm 147 |
