Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul!
2 While I live I will praise the Lord; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3 Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.
4 His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; in that very day his plans perish.
5 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever,
7 Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.
8 The Lord opens the eyes of the blind; the Lord raises those who are bowed down;
The Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the strangers; He relieves the fatherless and widow;
But the way of the wicked He turns upside down.
10 The Lord shall reign forever—
Your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the Lord!
In what or in whom is your hope? Is it “in the Lord God?” verse 5. He will never fail you.
