2 I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God  while I exist.
         
                                
                        3 Trust not in princes -- in a son of man, For he hath no  deliverance.
         
                                
                        4 His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In  that day have his thoughts perished.
         
                                
                        5 O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his  help, His hope [is] on Jehovah his God,
         
                                
                        6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in  them, Who is keeping truth to the age,
         
                                
                        7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the  hungry.
         
                                
                        8 Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the  eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah  is loving the righteous,
