The Book of Psalms

Praise Jehovah; praise Jehovah, O my soul.

While I live I will praise Jehovah; I will sing praises to my God while I have being.

Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, for there is no salvation in him.

His breath will go out, he returns to the earth; his thoughts perish in that day.

Blessed [is he] who [has] the God of Jacob in his help; his hope [is] on Jehovah his God;

who made the heavens and the earth, the seas and all that [is] in them; who keeps truth forever;

who executes judgment for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry; Jehovah sets free the prisoners;

Jehovah opens [the eyes of] the blind; Jehovah raises those bowed down; Jehovah loves the righteous;

Jehovah watches over the strangers; He relieves the orphan and the widow, but He warps the way of the wicked.

Jehovah shall reign forever; O Zion, your God from generation and generation. Praise Jehovah.
