Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul. |

While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist. |

Don't put your trust in princes, Each a son of man in whom there is no help. |

His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish. |

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in Yahweh, 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. Yahweh frees the prisoners. |
8
|
Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous. |
9
|
Yahweh preserves the sojourners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, But the way of the wicked he turns upside down. |

|
Yahweh will reign forever; Your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah! Psalm 147 |
