Psalm 146 (WEBP)

[1] Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul.
[2] While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
[3] Don’t put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.
[4] His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.
[5] Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God,
[6] who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;
[7] who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners.
[8] Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous.
[9] Yahweh preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.
[10] Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah!

Psalm 146 (KJVS)

[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.
