1 Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.2 While I have breath I will give praise to the Lord: I will make melody to my God while I have my being.3 Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.4 Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.5 Happy is the man 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 things in them; who keeps faith for ever:7 Who gives their rights to those who are crushed down; and gives food to those who are in need of it: the Lord makes the prisoners free;8 The Lord makes open the eyes of the blind; the Lord is the lifter up of those who are bent down; the Lord is a lover of the upright;9 The Lord takes care of those who are in a strange land; he gives help to the widow and to the child who has no father; but he sends destruction on the way of sinners.10 The Lord will be King for ever; your God, O Zion, will be King through all generations. Praise be to the Lord.

1 你们要赞美耶和华。我的心哪！ 要赞美耶和华。 2 我还活着的时候， 我要赞美耶和华； 我还在世上的时候， 我要歌颂我的 神。 3 你们不要倚靠权贵， 不要倚靠世人， 他们一点都不能救助你们。 4 他们的气一断， 就归回尘土； 他们所计划的， 当天就幻灭了。 5 以雅各的 神为自己的帮助， 仰望耶和华他的 神的， 这人就是有福的。 6 耶和华造天、地、海， 和其中的万物； 他持守信实， 直到永远。 7 他为受欺压的人伸冤， 赐食物给饥饿的人， 耶和华使被囚的得自由。 8 耶和华开了瞎子的眼睛， 耶和华扶起被压迫的人， 耶和华喜爱义人。 9 耶和华保护寄居的， 扶持孤儿寡妇， 却使恶人的行动挫败。 10 愿耶和华作王， 直到永远！ 锡安哪！ 愿你的 神作王， 直到万代。你们要赞美耶和华。
