Psalms 146 — FBV
146Verse 1Praise the Lord! With my whole being I praise the Lord!
Verse 2I will praise the Lord while I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have breath.
Verse 3Don't put your confidence in human leaders—they can't save you.
Verse 4Once they breathe no more, they go back to dust. On that very day everything they planned dies with them.
Verse 5Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them—their hope is in the Lord their God—
Verse 6the one who made heaven and earth, and the sea along with everything it contains. He is trustworthy forever.
Verse 7He makes sure the oppressed receive justice. He gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free.
Verse 8The Lord makes the blind see. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down. The Lord loves those who do what's right.
Verse 9The Lord takes care of strangers among us. He looks after widows and orphans. But he makes life difficult for the wicked.
Verse 10The Lord will reign forever. Zion, he will be your God for all generations. Praise the Lord!
