Psalms 146

DOUAI-RHEIMS	DIODATI
1 I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.	1 ALLELUIA. Anima mia, loda il Signore.
2 Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.	2 Io loderò il Signore, mentre viverò; Io salmeggerò al mio Dio, mentre durerò.
3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.	3 Non vi confidate in principi, Nè in alcun figliuol d’uomo, che non ha modo di salvare.
4 Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.	4 Il suo fiato uscirà, ed egli se ne ritornerà nella sua terra; In quel dì periranno i suoi disegni
5 They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.	5 Beato colui che ha l’Iddio di Giacobbe in suo aiuto, La cui speranza è nel Signore Iddio suo
6 And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.	6 Il quale ha fatto il cielo e la terra, Il mare, e tutto ciò ch’è in essi; Che osserva la fede in eterno;
7 They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.	7 Il qual fa ragione agli oppressati; E dà del cibo agli affamati. Il Signore scioglie i prigioni.
8 The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.	8 Il Signore apre gli occhi a’ ciechi; Il Signore rileva quelli che son chinati; Il Signore ama i giusti.
9 The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.	9 Il Signore guarda i forestieri; Egli solleva l’orfano e la vedova; E sovverte la via degli empi.
10 Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.	10 Il Signore regna in eterno, E il tuo Dio, o Sion, per ogni età. Alleluia
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.
