Ps. 146:6. Hän on tehnyt taivaan ja maan
ja
meren ja kaiken, mitä niissä
on.
Hän
pysyy ikuisesti uskollisena.
7.
Hän hankkii oikeuden sorretuille
ja
antaa leivän nälkäisille.
Herra
vapauttaa vangitut.
8.
Herra avaa sokeiden silmät
ja
nostaa pystyyn alaspainetut.
Herra
rakastaa vanhurskaita.
9.
Herra varjelee muukalaisia,
tukee
orpoja ja leskiä,
mutta
jumalattomien tien hän
tekee
mutkaiseksi.
10.
Herra
on kuningas ikuisesti,
sinun
Jumalasi, Siion, polvesta polveen.
Halleluja!
Psalm 146 (AMP)5 Happy (blessed, fortunate, enviable) is he who has the
God of [special revelation to] Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord
his God,
6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, Who
keeps truth and is faithful forever,
7 Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the
hungry. The Lord sets free the prisoners,
8 The Lord opens the eyes of the blind, the Lord lifts up those who
are bowed down, the Lord loves the [uncompromisingly] righteous (those upright
in heart and in right standing with Him).
9 The Lord protects and preserves the strangers and
temporary residents, He upholds the fatherless and the widow and sets
them upright, but the way of the wicked He makes crooked (turns upside down and
brings to ruin).
10 The Lord shall reign forever, even Your God, O Zion, from
generation to generation. Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)
Psalm 146 (MSG)146 1-2 Hallelujah!
O my soul, praise God!
All my life long I’ll praise God,
singing songs to my God as long as I live.
3-9 Don’t put your life in the hands of experts
who know nothing of life, of salvation life.
Mere humans don’t have what it takes;
when they die, their projects die with them.
Instead, get help from the God of Jacob,
put your hope in God and know real
blessing!
God made sky and soil,
sea and all the fish in it.
He always does what he says—
he defends the wronged,
he feeds the hungry.
God frees prisoners—
he gives sight to the blind,
he lifts up the fallen.
God loves good people, protects
strangers,
takes the side of orphans and widows,
but makes short work of the wicked.
10 God’s in charge—always.
Zion’s God is God for good!
Hallelujah!
