1Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3Put not your trust in princes, [nor] in the son of man, in whom [there is] no help.

4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

5Happy [is he] that [hath] the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope [is] in the LORD his God:

6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein [is]: which keepeth truth for ever:

7Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

8The LORD openeth [the eyes of] the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

9The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

10The LORD shall reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
