| 146.6 |
who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever; |
| 146.7 |
who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners. |

Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous. |

Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah! |
