Psalm 146: Praise, Trust, and the Lord Who Helps

Psalm 146 calls the soul to praise the Lord for as long as life endures, and warns against trusting in princes or any human being, whose breath departs and whose plans perish. It declares the happiness of those who have the God of Jacob as their help and place their hope in the Lord, the Maker of heaven, earth, sea, and all that is in them, who keeps truth forever. The psalm describes the Lord’s works of justice and mercy: executing judgment for the oppressed, feeding the hungry, freeing prisoners, opening the eyes of the blind, raising the bowed down, loving the righteous, preserving strangers, and relieving the fatherless and widow, while overturning the way of the wicked. It ends by proclaiming that the Lord will reign forever in Zion for all generations.
