1 Alleluia, a Psalm of Haggai and Zechariah. My soul, praise the Lord.10 The Lord shall reign forever, Even thy God, O Zion, to all generations.2 While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.3 Trust not in princes, Nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.4 His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; In that day all his thoughts shall perish.5 Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, Whose hope is in the Lord his God:6 Who made heaven, and earth, The sea, and all things in them: Who keeps truth forever:7 Who executes judgment for the wronged: Who gives food to the hungry. The Lord looses the fettered ones:8 The Lord gives wisdom to the blind: The Lord sets up the broken down: The Lord loves the righteous: The Lord preserves the strangers;9 He will relieve the orphan and widow: But will utterly remove the way of sinners.
