¹(146) Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. My soul, praise the Lord.

¹I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

²While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

²Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

³Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.

³Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

⁴His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all his thoughts shall perish.

⁴One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

⁵Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

⁵I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

⁶who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all things in them: who keeps truth for ever:

⁶And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

⁷who executes judgment for the wronged: who gives food to the hungry. The Lord looses the fettered ones:

⁷They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

⁸the Lord gives wisdom to the blind: The Lord sets up the broken down: the Lord loves the righteous: the Lord preserves the strangers;

⁸The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

⁹he will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.

⁹The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

¹⁰The Lord shall reign for ever, [even] your God, O Sion, to all generations.

¹⁰All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee.
