Psalm 146 — Psalms 146:3–8

Put not your trust in princes,
Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;
In that very day his thoughts perish.

Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in Jehovah his God:

Who made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that in them is;
Who keepeth truth for ever;

Who executeth justice for the oppressed;
Who giveth food to the hungry.
Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

Jehovah openeth the eyes of the blind;
Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down;
Jehovah loveth the righteous;
