Praise the Lord, my soul

1
Praise Yahweh. Praise Yahweh, my soul.
2
I give praise to Yahweh with all my life; I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
3
Do not put your trust in princes or in mankind, in whom there is no salvation.
4
When a person’s life’s breath stops, he returns to the ground; on that day his plans end.
5
Blessed is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh his God.
6
Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; he observes trustworthiness forever.
7
He executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners;
8
Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind; Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down; Yahweh loves the righteous people.
9
Yahweh protects the foreigners in the land; he lifts up the fatherless and widow, but he opposes the wicked.
10
Yahweh will reign forever, your God, Zion, for all generations. Praise Yahweh.

Praise the Lord, my soul

Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul.
2
While I live, I will praise the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
3
Don’t put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.
4
His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.
5
Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD, his God,
6
who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;
7
who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The LORD frees the prisoners.
8
The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD raises up those who are bowed down. The LORD loves the righteous.
9
The LORD preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.
10
The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
