1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye…: Heb. Hallelujah2 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. help: or, salvation4 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 shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
