| 1 | Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. |
| 2 | While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to 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 | Who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is in them: who keepeth truth for ever: |
| 7 | Who executeth judgment for the oppressed: who 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 will reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD. |
