PSALM CXLV
Praise the Lord, O my soul; in my life I will praise the Lord; * I will sing to my God as long as I shall be.
Put not your trust in princes; * in the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.
His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth; * in that day all their thoughts shall perish.
Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God; * Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that are in them.
Who keepeth truth for ever, Who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong; * Who giveth food to the hungry.
The Lord looseth them that are fettered; * the Lord enlighteneth the blind.
The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down; * the Lord loveth the just.
