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。
1 Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise Jehovah, O my soul.
2 While I live will I praise Jehovah:
I will sing praises unto 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 Jehovah his God:
6 Who made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that in them is;
Who keepeth truth for ever;
7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed;
Who giveth food to the hungry.
Jehovah looseth the prisoners;
8 Jehovah openeth the eyes of the blind;
Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down;
Jehovah loveth the righteous;
9 Jehovah preserveth the sojourners;
He upholdeth the fatherless and widow;
But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
10 Jehovah will reign for ever,
Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations.
Praise ye Jehovah.
