Commentary on Psalms - Volume 5

1Praise, O my soul! Jehovah.

2I will praise Jehovah in my life; I will sing psalms to my God, while I have being.

3Confide not in princes, Nor in the son of man, in whom there is not help.

4Go forth shall his breath, He shall return to his earth, In that day perish shall his thoughts.

5Blessed is he who hath for his help the God of Jacob; Whose hope is in Jehovah, his God:

6Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them: Who keepeth truth for ever:

7Who doeth judgment for those who are unrighteously oppressed: Who giveth bread to the hungry: Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

8Jehovah enlighteneth the blind; Jehovah raiseth up those who are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous;

9Jehovah keepeth the strangers; The orphan and the widow he succoureth; And the way of the ungodly he will destroy.

10Reign shall Jehovah for ever: Thy God, O Zion, is from generation to generation. Hallelujah.
