1Praise ye Jehovah.

Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

2While I live will I praise Jehovah:

I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3Put not your trust in princes,

Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;

In that very day his thoughts perish.

5Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,

Whose hope is in Jehovah his God:

6Who made heaven and earth,

The sea, and all that in them is;

Who keepeth truth for ever;

7Who executeth justice for the oppressed;

Who giveth food to the hungry.

Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord, O my soul!

I will praise the Lord as long as I live;

I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

Put not your trust in princes,

in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

When his breath departs, he returns to the earth;

on that very day his plans perish.

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose hope is in the Lord his God,

who made heaven and earth,

the sea, and all that is in them,

who keeps faith forever;

who executes justice for the oppressed,

who gives food to the hungry.

The Lord sets the prisoners free;

Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord, my soul.

I will praise the Lord all my life;

I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

Do not put your trust in princes,

in human beings, who cannot save.

When their spirit departs, they return to the ground;

on that very day their plans come to nothing.

Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose hope is in the Lord their God.

He is the Maker of heaven and earth,

the sea, and everything in them—

he remains faithful forever.

He upholds the cause of the oppressed

and gives food to the hungry.

The Lord sets prisoners free,

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Hallelujah!

My soul, praise the Lord.

I will praise the Lord all my life;

I will sing to my God as long as I live.

Do not trust in nobles,

in a son of man, who cannot save.

When his breath leaves him,

he returns to the ground;

on that day his plans die.

Happy is the one whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose hope is in the Lord his God,

the Maker of heaven and earth,

the sea and everything in them.

He remains faithful forever,

executing justice for the exploited

and giving food to the hungry.

The Lord frees prisoners.

NLTNew Living Translation

Praise the Lord!

Let all that I am praise the Lord.

I will praise the Lord as long as I live.

I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath.

Don’t put your confidence in powerful people;

there is no help for you there.

When they breathe their last, they return to the earth,

and all their plans die with them.

But joyful are those who have the God of Israel as their helper,

whose hope is in the Lord their God.

He made heaven and earth,

the sea, and everything in them.

He keeps every promise forever.

He gives justice to the oppressed

and food to the hungry.

The Lord frees the prisoners.

Praise Yah.

Praise Yahweh, O my soul.

I will praise Yahweh while I live;

Do not place trust in princes,

in a son of humankind with whom there is no deliverance.

His breath departs; he returns to his plot;

on that day his plans perish.

Blessed is the one whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose hope is on Yahweh as his God,

who made heaven and earth,

the sea and all that is in them,

the one who keeps faith forever,

who executes justice for the oppressed,

who gives food for the hungry.

Yahweh sets prisoners free;

Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;

In that very day his thoughts perish.

Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,

Whose hope is in the Lord his God:

Which made heaven, and earth,

The sea, and all that therein is:

Which keepeth truth for ever:

Which executeth judgment for the oppressed:

Which giveth food to the hungry.

The Lord looseth the prisoners:
