Psalms 146:1-5

Praise the LORD! My whole being, praise the LORD. I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praises to my God as long as I live. Do not put your trust in princes or other people, who cannot save you. When people die, they are buried. Then all of their plans come to an end. Happy are those who are helped by the God of Jacob. Their hope is in the LORD their God.
