2I praise YHWH during my life, "" I sing praise to my God while I exist.

3Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, "" For he has no deliverance.

4His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, "" In that day his thoughts have perished.

5O the blessedness of him "" Who has the God of Jacob for his help, "" His hope [is] on his God YHWH,

6Making the heavens and earth, "" The sea and all that [is] in them, "" Who is keeping truth for all time,

7Doing judgment for the oppressed, "" Giving bread to the hungry.

8YHWH is loosing the prisoners, "" YHWH is opening (the eyes of) the blind, "" YHWH is raising the bowed down, "" YHWH is loving the righteous,

9YHWH is preserving the strangers, "" He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, "" And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.

10YHWH reigns for all time, "" Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, "" Praise YAH!
