Psalms 146:1-7, New Living Translation

Psalm 146

1 Praise the LORD!    Praise the LORD, I tell myself.

2 I will praise the LORD as long as I live.
I will sing praises to my God even with my dying breath.

3 Don't put your confidence in powerful people;
there is no help for you there.

4 When their breathing stops, they return to the earth,
and in a moment all their plans come to an end.

5 But happy are those who have the God of Israel[1][Hebrew of Jacob. ] as their helper,
whose hope is in the LORD their God.

6 He is the one who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them. He is the one who keeps every promise forever,

7 who gives justice to the oppressed
and food to the hungry.
The LORD frees the prisoners.
