1 Praise Yahweh!
With my whole inner being I will praise Yahweh.
2 I will praise Yahweh as long as I am alive;
I will sing to praise my God all the rest of my life.
3 You people, do not trust in your leaders;
do not trust humans because they cannot save/rescue you from your difficulties/problems.
4 And when they die, their corpses decay and become soil again.
After they die, they can no longer do the things that they planned to do.
5 But those whose helper is the God whom Jacob worshiped are happy.
The one whom they confidently expect to help them is Yahweh, their God.
6 He is the one who created heaven and the earth
and the oceans and all the creatures that are in them.
He always does what he has promised to do.
7 He decides matters fairly for those who are ◄treated unfairly/oppressed►,
and he provides food for those who are hungry.
He frees those who ◄are in prison/have great troubles►.
8 Yahweh ◄enables those who are blind to see again/helps those who are helpless►.
He lifts up those who have fallen down.
He loves righteous people.
9 Yahweh takes care of those from other countries who live in our land,
and he helps widows and orphans.
But he ◄blocks the roads/gets rid► of wicked people.
10 Yahweh will continue to be our king forever;
you people of Israel, your God will rule forever!
Praise Yahweh!
