Psalm 146

Praise the LORD, O My Soul

1 Hallelujah! a 

Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2 I will praise the LORD all my life;

I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

3 Put not your trust in princes,

in mortal man, who cannot save.

4 When his spirit departs, he returns to the ground;

on that very day his plans perish.

5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose hope is in the LORD his God,

6 the Maker of heaven and earth,

the sea, and everything in them.

He remains faithful forever.

7 He executes justice for the oppressed

and gives food to the hungry.

The LORD sets the prisoners free,

8 the LORD opens the eyes of the blind,

the LORD lifts those who are weighed down,

the LORD loves the righteous.

9 The LORD protects foreigners;

He sustains the fatherless and the widow,

but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.

10 The LORD reigns forever,

your God, O Zion, for all generations.

Hallelujah!
