¹Praise Yahweh! Praise Yahweh, my being.

²I will praise Yahweh while I live; I will sing praises to my God as long as I continue.

³Do not trust in nobles, in a son of humankind, in whom there is no deliverance.

⁴His breath goes out; he returns to his ground; on that day his plans perish.

⁵Blessed is the one whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is set on Yahweh his God.

⁶Maker of skies and land, the sea and all that is in them, who keeps faithfulness forever.

⁷Who does justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh unties the bound;

⁸Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind; Yahweh lifts up those who are bent down; Yahweh is loving the righteous.

⁹Yahweh guards the sojourners; the fatherless and the widow he restores, but the way of the wicked he makes crooked.

¹⁰Yahweh will reign forever, your God, O Zion, from generation to generation. Praise Yahweh.
