89 O Lord, your word is everlasting; ♦︎
it ever stands firm in the heavens.
90 Your faithfulness also remains from one generation to another; ♦︎
you have established the earth and it abides.
91 So also your judgements stand firm this day, ♦︎
for all things are your servants.
92 If your law had not been my delight, ♦︎
I should have perished in my trouble.
93 I will never forget your commandments, ♦︎
for by them you have given me life.
94 I am yours, O save me! ♦︎
For I have sought your commandments.
95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me, ♦︎
but I will meditate on your testimonies.
96 I have seen an end of all perfection, ♦︎
but your commandment knows no bounds.

4 When their breath departs, they return to the earth;
on that very day their plans perish.
5 Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord their God,
6 who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them;
who keeps faith for ever;
7 who executes justice for the oppressed;
who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets the prisoners free;
8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
the Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the strangers;
he upholds the orphan and the widow,
but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
10 The Lord will reign for ever,
your God, O Zion, for all generations.
Praise the Lord!
