Psalm 146:3-5

Common English Bible

³ Don’t trust leaders;
    don’t trust any human beings—
    there’s no saving help with them!
⁴ Their breath leaves them,
    then they go back to the ground.
    On that very same day, their plans die too.

⁵ The person whose help is the God of Jacob—
    the person whose hope rests on the Lord their God—
    is truly happy!
