1. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, my soul.
2. I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
3. Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save.
4. When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing.
5. Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God.
