Psalms Chapter – 146 – World English Bible British Edition

1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul.

2 While I live, I will praise the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

3 Don’t put your trust in princes, each 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 the LORD, 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. The LORD frees the prisoners.

8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD raises up those who are bowed down. The LORD loves the righteous.

9 The LORD preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.

10 The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
