Psalms 145

¹Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias. ²Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes: ³In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation. ⁴His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish. ⁵Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God: ⁶Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them. ⁷Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered: ⁸The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just. ⁹The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy. ¹⁰The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
