We are not to trust in men, but in God alone.

1. 1

   Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.

2. 2

   Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be.

3. 4

   His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

4. 5

   Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord, his God: 6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.

5. 7

   Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry.

6. 9

   The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.

7. 10

   The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
