American Standard Version

Psalm 146:1-7 American Standard Version (ASV)

1. Praise ye Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

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

3. Put not your trust in princes, Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4. His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; In that very day his thoughts perish.

5. Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in Jehovah his God:

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

7. Who executeth justice for the oppressed; Who giveth food to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners;
