Psalms 146:5-9

⁵Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them—their hope is in the Lord their God—

⁶the one who made heaven and earth, and the sea along with everything it contains. He is trustworthy forever.

⁷He makes sure the oppressed receive justice. He gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free.

⁸The Lord makes the blind see. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down. The Lord loves those who do what is right.

⁹The Lord takes care of strangers among us. He looks after widows and orphans. But he makes life difficult for the wicked.
