1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psalms 146

1 The psalmist voweth perpetual praises to God. 3 He exhorteth not to trust in man. 5 God, for his power, justice, mercy, and Kingdom, is only worthy to be trusted.

 146:1 ¶ Praise ye Jah! Praise, O my soul, Jehovah.

 146:2 I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

 146:3 Trust not in princes—in a son of man, For he hath no deliverance.

 146:4 His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In that day have his thoughts perished.

 146:5 O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on Jehovah his God,

 146:6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth to the age,

 146:7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.

 146:8 Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah is loving the righteous,

 146:9 Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.

 146:10 Jehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise ye Jah!
