Psalm 146 (English Standard Version)
View In My BiblePut Not Your Trust in Princes
1 1Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul! 2 I will praise the LORD2as long as I live; 3I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. 3 4Put not your trust in princes, 5in a son of man, in whom there is 6no salvation. 4 When 7his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish. 5 8Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose 9hope is in the LORD his God, 6 10who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, 11who keeps faith forever; 7 12who executes justice for the oppressed, 13who gives food to the hungry.14The LORD sets the prisoners free; 8 15the LORD opens the eyes of the blind. 16The LORD lifts up those who are bowed down; 17the LORD loves the righteous. 9 18The LORD watches over the sojourners; 19he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but 20the way of the wicked he brings to ruin. 10 21The LORD will reign forever, your God, O Zion, to all generations. 22Praise the LORD!The English Standard Version is published with the permission of Good News Publishers.
