The Lord, an Abundant Helper.

146 
[a]Praise [b]the Lord!

Praise the Lord, my soul!

2 I will praise the Lord while I live;

I will sing praises to my God while I [c]have my being.

3 Do not trust in noblemen,

In [d]mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.

4 His spirit departs, he returns to [e]the earth;

On that very day his plans perish.

5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

Whose hope is in the Lord his God,

6 Who made heaven and earth,

The sea and everything that is in them;

Who keeps [f]faith forever;

7 Who executes justice for the oppressed;

Who gives food to the hungry.

The Lord frees the prisoners.

8 The Lord opens the eyes of those who are blind;

The Lord raises up those who are bowed down;

The Lord loves the righteous.

9 The Lord watches over strangers;

He [g]supports the fatherless and the widow,

But He [h]thwarts the way of the wicked.

10 The Lord will reign forever,

Your God, Zion, to all generations.

[i]Praise [j]the Lord!
