מ⁠¹³Thy kingdom is a kingdom for all ages,

And Thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

ס⁠¹⁴The Lord upholdeth all that fall,

And raiseth up all those that are bowed down.

ע⁠¹⁵The eyes of all wait for Thee,

And Thou givest them their food in due season.

פ⁠¹⁶Thou openest Thy hand,

And satisfiest every living thing with favour.

צ⁠¹⁷The Lord is righteous in all His ways,

And gracious in all His works.

ק⁠¹⁸The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him,

To all that call upon Him in truth.

ר⁠¹⁹He will fulfil the desire of them that fear Him;

He also will hear their cry, and will save them.

ש⁠²⁰The Lord preserveth all them that love Him;

But all the wicked will He destroy.

ת⁠²¹My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord;

And let all flesh bless His holy name for ever and ever.

146 Hallelujah.

Praise the Lord, O my soul.

²I will praise the Lord while I live;

I will sing praises unto my God while I have my 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 dust;

In that very day his thoughts perish.

⁵Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

Whose hope is in the Lord 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 bread to the hungry.

 

The Lord looseth the prisoners;

⁸The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind;

The Lord raiseth up them that are bowed down;

The Lord loveth the righteous;

⁹The Lord preserveth the strangers;

He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow;

But the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.

¹⁰The Lord will reign for ever,

Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations.

Hallelujah.

147 Hallelujah;

For it is good to sing praises unto our God;

For it is pleasant, and praise is comely.

²The Lord doth build up Jerusalem,

He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel;

³Who healeth the broken in heart,

And bindeth up their wounds.

⁴He counteth the number of the stars;

He giveth them all their names.

⁵Great is our Lord, and mighty in power;

His understanding is infinite.

⁶The Lord upholdeth the humble;

He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.
