The Happiness of Those Whose Help Is the Lord

1 Praise1 the Lord!
aPraise the Lord, O my soul! 
2 aWhile I live I will praise the Lord;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. 
3 aDo not put your trust in princes,
Nor in1 a son of man, in whom there is no2 help. 
4 aHis spirit departs, he returns to his earth;
In that very day bhis plans perish. 
5 aHappy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God, 
6 aWho made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that is in them;
Who keeps truth forever, 
7 aWho executes justice for the oppressed,
bWho gives food to the hungry.
cThe Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.
