Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

Psalm 146:

Praise for God’s Help

146 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 being.

3 Put not your trust in princes,

in a son of man, in whom there is no help.

4 When his breath departs he returns to his earth;

on that very day his plans perish.

5 Happy 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 for ever;

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 for ever,

thy God, O Zion, to all generations.

Praise the Lord!
