Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Lord, O my soul. |
| 2 |
While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. |
| 3 |
Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. |
| 4 |
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. |
| 5 |
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God: |
| 6 |
Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: |
| 7 |
Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth the prisoners: |
| 8 |
The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind: the Lord raiseth them that are bowed down: the Lord loveth the righteous: |
| 9 |
The Lord preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. |
| 10 |
The Lord shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the Lord. |
