Psalm 146 | English Standard Version

Put Not Your Trust in Princes

1 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul! 2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. 3 Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. 4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish. 5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God, 6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever; 7 who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free; 8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous. 9 The Lord watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin. 10 The Lord will reign forever, your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the Lord!

1 Hallelujah! Lobe den HERRN, meine Seele! 2 Ich will den HERRN loben, solange ich lebe, und meinem Gott lobsingen, solange ich bin. 3 Verlasst euch nicht auf Fürsten, auf ein Menschenkind, bei dem keine Rettung ist! 4 Fährt sein Geist aus, wird er wieder zu Erde; an dem Tag ist’s aus mit allen seinen Plänen. 5 Wohl dem, dessen Hilfe der Gott Jakobs ist, dessen Hoffnung ruht auf dem HERRN, seinem Gott! 6 Er hat Himmel und Erde gemacht, das Meer und alles, was darin ist; er bewahrt Treue auf ewig. 7 Er verschafft den Unterdrückten Recht und gibt den Hungrigen Brot. Der HERR löst die Gebundenen. 8 Der HERR macht die Blinden sehend; der HERR richtet die Elenden auf; der HERR liebt die Gerechten. 9 Der HERR behütet den Fremdling; er erhält Waisen und Witwen; aber die Gottlosen lässt er verkehrte Wege gehen. 10 Der HERR wird herrschen in Ewigkeit, dein Gott, o Zion, von Geschlecht zu Geschlecht! Hallelujah!
