PSALM 146

I Will Praise Yahweh Throughout My Life

¹¹Praise Yah!

^aPraise Yahweh, O my soul!

²I will praise Yahweh ^athroughout my life;

I will ^bsing praises to my God while I have my being.

^3aDo not trust in nobles,

In merely a son of ^bman, in whom there is ^cno salvation.

⁴His ^aspirit departs, he ^breturns to ¹the earth;

In that very day his ^cplans perish.

⁵How ^ablessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

Whose ^bhope is in Yahweh his God,

⁶Who ^amade heaven and earth,

The ^bsea and all that is in them;

Who ^ckeeps truth forever;

⁷Who ^adoes justice for the oppressed;

Who ^bgives food to the hungry.

Yahweh ^csets the prisoners free.

⁸Yahweh ^aopens the eyes of the blind;

Yahweh ^braises up those who are bowed down;

Yahweh ^cloves the righteous;

⁹Yahweh ^akeeps the sojourners;

He ^1bhelps up the orphan and the widow,

But He bends ^cthe way of the wicked.

¹⁰Yahweh will ^areign forever,

Your God, O Zion, ¹from generation to generation.

²Praise Yah!
