Psalmen 146

146

Prayse ye the Lorde. Prayse thou the Lord, O my soule.

2

I will prayse the Lorde during my life: as long as I haue any being, I wil sing vnto my God.

3

Put not your trust in princes, nor in the sonne of man, for there is none helpe in him.

4

His breath departeth, and he returneth to his earth: then his thoughtes perish.

5

Blessed is he, that hath the God of Iaakob for his helpe, whose hope is in the Lord his God.

6

Which made heauen and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth his fidelitie for euer:

7

Which executeth iustice for the oppressed: which giueth bread to the hungry: the Lord loseth the prisoners.

8

The Lorde giueth sight to the blinde: the Lord rayseth vp the crooked: the Lord loueth the righteous.

9

The Lord keepeth the strangers: he relieueth the fatherlesse & widowe: but he ouerthroweth the way of the wicked.

10

The Lord shall reigne for euer: O Zion, thy God endureth from generation to generation. Prayse ye the Lord.
