Psalms 146

DOUAI-RHEIMS	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.	1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2 Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.	2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.	3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
4 Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.	4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
5 They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.	5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
6 And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.	6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:
7 They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.	7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:
8 The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.	8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:
9 The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.	9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
10 Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.	10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:
12 To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.
13 Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
14 The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down.
15 The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.
16 Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.
17 The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works.
18 The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him: to all that call upon him in truth.
19 He will do the will of them that fear him: and he will hear their prayer, and save them.
20 The Lord keepeth all them that love him; but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless thy holy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
