Psalm 146

I Will Praise Yahweh Throughout My Life

Praise Yah!
Praise Yahweh, O my soul!
2
I will praise Yahweh throughout my life;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3
Do not trust in nobles,
In merely a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
4
His spirit departs, he returns to the earth;
In that very day his plans perish.
5
How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
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 does justice for the oppressed;
Who gives food to the hungry.
Yahweh sets the prisoners free.

8
Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind;
Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down;
Yahweh loves the righteous;
9
Yahweh keeps the sojourners;
He helps up the orphan and the widow,
But He bends the way of the wicked.
10
Yahweh will reign forever,
Your God, O Zion, from generation to generation.
Praise Yah!
