Psalms

146

Christian Standard Bible

1 Hallelujah! My soul, praise the LORD.

2 I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing to my God as long as I live.

3 Do not trust in nobles, in a son of man, who cannot save.

4 When his breath leaves him, he returns to the ground; on that day his plans die.

5 Happy is the one 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 executing justice for the exploited and giving food to the hungry. The LORD frees prisoners.

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

9 The LORD protects resident aliens and helps the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

10 The LORD reigns forever; Zion, your God reigns for all generations. Hallelujah!
