Praise the Lord, my soul. I will praise the Lord in my belly, I will sing to my God until I am. Do not trust in princes, in the sons of men, for there is no salvation in them. His spirit shall depart and return to his land: in that day all his thoughts shall perish. Blessed is he who has the God of Jacob as his helper; his trust is in the Lord his God, who created the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything that is in them: keeping the truth forever, creating judgment for the wronged, giving food to the hungry. The Lord decides the bound: The Lord makes wise the blind: The Lord raises up the downtrodden: The Lord loves the righteous: The Lord protects strangers, the orphan and the widow will receive, and the way He will destroy sinners. The Lord reigns forever, your God, O Zion, forever and ever.
