PSAL. CXLVI.
PRaise God: the Lord praise, O my soul.I'le praise God while I live:Line 2 While I have being, to my Godin songs I'le praises give.Trust not in Princes, nor mans son,Line 3 in whom there is no stay:His breath departs, to's earth he turns,Line 4 that day his thoughts decay.

O happy is that man and blest,Line 5 whom Jacobs God doth aid,Whose hope upon the Lord doth rest,and on his God is staidVVho made the earth and heavens high,Line 6 who made the swelling deep,And all that is within the same:who truth doth ever keep:
VVho righteous judgement executesLine 7 for those opprest that be;VVho to the hungry giveth food,God sets the prisoners free.The Lord doth give the blinde their sight,Line 8 the bowel down doth raise:The Lord doth dearly love all thosethat walk in upright wayes.
The strangers shield, the widows stay▪Line 9 the orphans help is he:But yet by him the wickeds wayturn'd upside-down shall be.The Lord shall reign for evermore,Line 10 thy God, O Zion, HeReigns to all generations.Praise to the Lord give ye.
