King James New American Standard Bible
  • 1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
  • 2 While I live will I praise the LORD: 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 the LORD his God:
  • 6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:
  • 7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which 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, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
  • 1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul!
  • 2 I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
  • 3 Do not trust in princes, In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.
  • 4 His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; In that very day his thoughts perish.
  • 5 How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, Whose hope is in the LORD his God,
  • 6 Who made heaven and earth, The sea and all that is in them; Who keeps faith forever;
  • 7 Who executes justice for the oppressed; Who gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free.
  • 8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind; The LORD raises up those who are bowed down; The LORD loves the righteous;
  • 9 The LORD protects the strangers; He supports the fatherless and the widow, But He thwarts the way of the wicked.
  • 10 The LORD will reign forever, Your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
