1. Praise Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul.
2. While I live I will praise Jehovah; I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.
3. Do not put your trust in princes, nor in the son of man in whom there is no salvation.
4. His breath goes forth; he returns to the earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
5. Blessed is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose help is in Jehovah his God,
6. who made the heavens and earth, the sea and all that is in it; who keeps truth forever;
7. who carries out judgment for the mistreated; who gives food to the hungry. Jehovah lets the prisoners loose;
8. the Lord opens the eyes of the blind; Jehovah raises those who are bowed down; Jehovah loves the righteous;
9. Jehovah preserves the strangers; He relieves the orphan and widow, but the way of the wicked He turns upside down.
10. Jehovah shall reign forever, even your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Jehovah!
