Psalms 146:2-6

I will praise the Lord while I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

Do not trust in noblemen, In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.

His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; On that very day his plans perish.

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, Whose hope is in the Lord his God,

Who made heaven and earth, The sea and everything that is in them; Who keeps faith forever;
