Psalms 146

Trust in the Lord Not in Princes

1 Praise ye the Lord . Praise the Lord , O my soul.

2 While I live will I praise the Lord : I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3 Put not your trust in princes, Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; In that very day his thoughts perish.

5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6 Which made heaven, and earth, The sea, and all that therein is: Which keepeth truth for ever:

7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: Which giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth the prisoners:

8 The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind: The Lord raiseth them that are bowed down: The Lord loveth the righteous:

9 The Lord preserveth the strangers; He relieveth the fatherless and widow: But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

10 The Lord shall reign for ever, Even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the Lord .
