New International Version NIV

1 Praise the LORD.Praise the LORD, my soul.

2 I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

3 Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save.

4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing.

5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD their God.

6 He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them— he remains faithful forever.

7 He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets prisoners free,

8 the LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous.

9 The LORD watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

10 The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the LORD.

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.

2 While I have breath I will give praise to the Lord: I will make melody to my God while I have my being.

3 Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

4 Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.

5 Happy is the man who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things in them; who keeps faith for ever:

7 Who gives their rights to those who are crushed down; and gives food to those who are in need of it: the Lord makes the prisoners free;

8 The Lord makes open the eyes of the blind; the Lord is the lifter up of those who are bent down; the Lord is a lover of the upright;

9 The Lord takes care of those who are in a strange land; he gives help to the widow and to the child who has no father; but he sends destruction on the way of sinners.

10 The Lord will be King for ever; your God, O Zion, will be King through all generations. Praise be to the Lord.
