Psalm, 146

1 Praise Jah!*1 Let my whole being*2 praise Jehovah.

  1. Or “Hallelujah!” “Jah” is a shortened form of the name Jehovah.

  2. Or “my soul.”

2 I will praise Jehovah all my life. I will sing praises*1 to my God as long as I live.

  1. Or “make music.”

3 Do not put your trust in princes*1 Nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation.

  1. Or “nobles.”

4 His spirit*1 goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish.

  1. Or “breath.”

5 Happy is the one who has the God of Jacob as his helper, Whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

6 The Maker of heaven and earth, Of the sea, and of all that is in them, The One who always remains faithful,

7 The One securing justice for those defrauded, The One giving bread to the hungry. Jehovah is releasing the prisoners.*1

  1. Lit., “bound ones.”

8 Jehovah is opening the eyes of the blind; Jehovah is raising up those bowed down; Jehovah loves the righteous.

9 Jehovah is protecting the foreign residents; He sustains the fatherless child and the widow, But he thwarts the plans of the wicked.*1

  1. Or “makes the way of the wicked crooked.”

10 Jehovah will be King forever, Your God, O Zion, for generation after generation. Praise Jah!*1

  1. Or “Hallelujah!” “Jah” is a shortened form of the name Jehovah.
