PSALM 146
PUT NOT YOUR TRUST IN PRINCES
This anonymous psalm praises God and rejoices in His good works, specifically setting prisoners free and opening the eyes of the blind. God cares deeply for the widows and the fatherless but brings the ways of the wicked to ruin. God will lift those who are bowed down, showing His value of humility. This psalm highlights the fleeting nature of man’s plans and emphasizes that hope is best placed in God.
Psalm 146:4 ESV - "When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish."
