146 Praise Jah, YOU people!*+
Praise Jehovah, O my soul.+
2 I will praise Jehovah during my lifetime.+
I will make melody to my God as long as I am.+
3 Do not put YOUR trust in nobles,+
Nor in the son of earthling man,* to whom no salvation belongs.+
4 His spirit* goes out,+ he goes back to his ground;+
In that day his thoughts do perish.*+
5 Happy is the one who has the God* of Jacob for his help,+
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 keeping trueness to time indefinite,+
7 The One executing judgment for the defrauded ones,+
The One giving bread to the hungry ones.+
Jehovah is releasing those who are bound.+
8 Jehovah is opening [the eyes of] the blind ones;+
Jehovah is raising up the ones bowed down;+
Jehovah is loving the righteous ones.+
9 Jehovah is guarding the alien residents;+
The fatherless boy and the widow he relieves,+
But the way+ of the wicked ones he makes crooked.+
10 Jehovah will be king to time indefinite,+
Your God, O Zion, for generation after generation.+
Praise Jah, YOU people!+
