2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

4 His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keeps truth for ever:

who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps truth forever,

7 Which executes judgment for the oppressed: which gives food to the hungry. The LORD looses the prisoners:

8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind: the LORD raises them that are bowed down: the LORD loves the righteous:

9 The LORD perserves the strangers; he relieves the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

Jehovah preserves the sojourners. He upholds the fatherless and widow. But the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even your God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise all of you the LORD.

Jehovah will reign forever, thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye Jehovah.
