| 1 | Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul.
| |
| 2 | While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
| |
| 3 | Don't put your trust in princes, Each a son of man in whom there is no help.
| |
| 4 | His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.
| |
| 5 | Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in Yahweh, his God:
| |
| 6 | Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever;
| |
| 7 | Who executes justice for the oppressed; Who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners.
| |
| 8 | Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous.
| |
| 9 | Yahweh preserves the sojourners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, But the way of the wicked he turns upside down.
| |
| 10 | Yahweh will reign forever; Your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah! Psalm 147
