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 H1984 (8761) ye the LORD H3050. Praise H1984 (8761) the LORD H3068, O my soul H5315.
[2] While I live H2416 will I praise H1984 (8762) the LORD H3068: I will sing praises H2167 (8762) unto my God H430 while I have any being.
[3] Put not your trust H982 (8799) in princes H5081, [nor] in the son H1121 of man H120, in whom [there is] no help H8668.
[4] His breath H7307 goeth forth H3318 (8799), he returneth H7725 (8799) to his earth H127; in that very day H3117 his thoughts H6250 perish H6 (8804).
[5] Happy H835 [is he] that [hath] the God H410 of Jacob H3290 for his help H5828, whose hope H7664 [is] in the LORD H3068 his God H430:
[6] Which made H6213 (8802) heaven H8064, and earth H776, the sea H3220, and all that therein [is]: which keepeth H8104 (8802) truth H571 for ever H5769:
[7] Which executeth H6213 (8802) judgment H4941 for the oppressed H6231 (8803): which giveth H5414 (8802) food H3899 to the hungry H7457. The LORD H3068 looseth H5425 (8688) the prisoners H631 (8803):
[8] The LORD H3068 openeth H6491 (8802) [the eyes of] the blind H5787: the LORD H3068 raiseth H2210 (8802) them that are bowed down H3721 (8803): the LORD H3068 loveth H157 (8802) the righteous H6662:
[9] The LORD H3068 preserveth H8104 (8802) the strangers H1616; he relieveth H5749 (8766) the fatherless H3490 and widow H490: but the way H1870 of the wicked H7563 he turneth upside down H5791 (8762).
[10] The LORD H3068 shall reign H4427 (8799) for ever H5769, [even] thy God H430, O Zion H6726, unto all H1755 generations H1755. Praise H1984 (8761) ye the LORD H3050.
Young’s Literal Translation
Psalm 146 (YLT)
[1] Praise ye Jah! Praise, O my soul, Jehovah.
[2] I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
[3] Trust not in princes-in a son of man, For he hath no deliverance.
[4] His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In that day have his thoughts perished.
[5] O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his help, His hope is on Jehovah his God,
[6] Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that is in them, Who is keeping truth to the age,
[7] Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.
[8] Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah is loving the righteous,
[9] Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.
[10] Jehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise ye Jah!
