The Lord an Abundant Helper.
1 Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
2 I will praise the Lordwhile 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 Lordhis 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 Lordsets the prisoners free.
8 The Lordopensthe eyes ofthe blind;
The Lordraises up those who are bowed down;
The Lordloves the righteous;
9 The Lordprotects the strangers;
He supports the fatherless and the widow,
But He thwarts the way of the wicked.
10 The Lordwill reign forever,
Your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the Lord!
