1 # See Ps. 135:1 Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
2I will praise the Lord #Ps. 63:4; [Ps. 145:2] as long as I live;

I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3 #
Ps. 118:9 Put not your trust in princes,
#
Ps. 118:8; [Isa. 2:22; Jer. 17:5] in a son of man, in whom there is #Ps. 60:11; 108:12no salvation.
4When #Ps. 104:29; [Eccles. 12:7]; See Job 10:9; 34:14, 15his breath departs, he returns to the earth;
on that very day his plans perish.
5 # [Ps. 144:15] Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose #Ps. 119:116; See Ps. 2:12hope is in the Lord his God,
6 # See Ps. 115:15 who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them,
# [Ps. 100:5; 117:2] who keeps faith forever;
7 #
Ps. 103:6 who executes justice for the oppressed,
#
Ps. 107:9; 145:15 who gives food to the hungry.
#
Ps. 105:20; Isa. 61:1; [Ps. 68:6] The Lord sets the prisoners free;
8 #
Matt. 9:30; John 9:7 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
#
Ps. 145:14; [Ps. 147:6] The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
#
Ps. 11:7
the Lord loves the righteous.
9 # [Ex. 22:21] The Lord watches over the sojourners;
#
Deut. 10:18; [Ex. 22:22]; See Ps. 10:14 he upholds the widow and the fatherless,
but #[Ps. 147:6]the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
10 # See Ps. 10:16 The Lord will reign forever,
your God, O Zion, to all generations.
# [See ver. 1 above] Praise the Lord!

Psalm 146
146
1Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2While I live will I praise the LORD: 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 the LORD his God:
6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is:
Which keepeth truth for ever:
7Which executeth judgment for the oppressed:
Which giveth food to the hungry.
The LORD looseth the prisoners:
8The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind:
The LORD raiseth them that are bowed down:
The LORD loveth the righteous:
9The LORD preserveth the strangers; He relieveth the fatherless and widow:
But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
10The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion,
Unto all generations.
Praise ye the LORD.
