赞美上帝的帮助

146 你们要赞美耶和华!
我的心啊,你要赞美耶和华。
我要一生赞美耶和华,
我一息尚存都要赞美祂。
你们不要倚靠权贵,
不要倚靠世人,
他们救不了你们。
他们气息一断,便归回尘土,
他们的打算转眼成空。
蒙雅各的上帝相助、仰望上帝耶和华的人有福了!
耶和华创造了天、地、海和其中的万物,
祂永远信实可靠。
祂为受压制的人申冤,
赐食物给饥饿的人,
使被囚者得自由。
耶和华叫瞎子看见,
扶持被重担所压的人,
祂喜爱义人。
耶和华保护寄居异地的人,
看顾孤儿寡妇,
祂挫败恶人的阴谋诡计。
10 耶和华永远掌权。
锡安啊,
你的上帝要世世代代做王。
你们要赞美耶和华!

146 Halleluyah!

Praise Adonai, my soul!
I will praise Adonai as long as I live.
I will sing praise to my God all my life.

Don’t put your trust in princes
or in mortals, who cannot help.
When they breathe their last, they return to dust;
on that very day all their plans are gone.

Happy is he whose help is Ya‘akov’s God,
whose hope is in Adonai his God.
He made heaven and earth,
the sea and everything in them;
he keeps faith forever.

He secures justice for the oppressed,
he gives food to the hungry.
Adonai sets prisoners free,
Adonai opens the eyes of the blind,
Adonai lifts up those who are bent over.
Adonai loves the righteous.
Adonai watches over strangers,
he sustains the fatherless and widows;
but the way of the wicked he twists.

10 Adonai will reign forever,
your God, Tziyon, through all generations.

Halleluyah!

頌美耶和華之扶助

146 你們要讚美耶和華!我的心哪,你要讚美耶和華!
我一生要讚美耶和華,我還活的時候要歌頌我的神。
你們不要倚靠君王,不要倚靠世人,他一點不能幫助。
他的氣一斷,就歸回塵土,他所打算的當日就消滅了。
雅各的神為幫助,仰望耶和華他神的,這人便為有福!
耶和華造天、地、海和其中的萬物,他守誠實直到永遠。
他為受屈的申冤,賜食物於飢餓的。耶和華釋放被囚的,
耶和華開了瞎子的眼睛,耶和華扶起被壓下的人,耶和華喜愛義人。
耶和華保護寄居的,扶持孤兒和寡婦,卻使惡人的道路彎曲。
10 耶和華要做王直到永遠,錫安哪,你的神要做王直到萬代。你們要讚美耶和華!

Psalm 146

Praise the Lord.[a]

Praise the Lord,(A) my soul.

I will praise the Lord all my life;(B)
    I will sing praise(C) to my God as long as I live.(D)
Do not put your trust in princes,(E)
    in human beings,(F) who cannot save.
When their spirit departs, they return to the ground;(G)
    on that very day their plans come to nothing.(H)
Blessed are those(I) whose help(J) is the God of Jacob,
    whose hope is in the Lord their God.

He is the Maker of heaven(K) and earth,
    the sea, and everything in them—
    he remains faithful(L) forever.
He upholds(M) the cause of the oppressed(N)
    and gives food to the hungry.(O)
The Lord sets prisoners free,(P)
    the Lord gives sight(Q) to the blind,(R)
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down,(S)
    the Lord loves the righteous.(T)
The Lord watches over the foreigner(U)
    and sustains the fatherless(V) and the widow,(W)
    but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

10 The Lord reigns(X) forever,
    your God, O Zion, for all generations.

Praise the Lord.
