¹ Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul! ² I will praise him as long as I live; I will sing to my God all my life. ³ Don't put your trust in human leaders; no human being can save you. ⁴ When they die, they return to the dust; on that day all their plans come to an end. ⁵ Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them and who depend on the LORD their God, ⁶ the Creator of heaven, earth, and sea, and all that is in them. He always keeps his promises; ⁷ he judges in favor of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets prisoners free ⁸ and gives sight to the blind. He lifts those who have fallen; he loves his righteous people. ⁹ He protects the strangers who live in our land; he helps widows and orphans, but takes the wicked to their ruin. ¹⁰ The LORD is king forever. Your God, O Zion, will reign for all time. Praise the LORD!
