All you Israelites, trust(A) in the Lord
    he is their help and shield.
10 House of Aaron,(B) trust in the Lord
    he is their help and shield.
11 You who fear him,(C) trust in the Lord
    he is their help and shield.

12 The Lord remembers(D) us and will bless us:(E)
    He will bless his people Israel,
    he will bless the house of Aaron,
13 he will bless those who fear(F) the Lord
    small and great alike.

14 May the Lord cause you to flourish,(G)
    both you and your children.
15 May you be blessed by the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven(H) and earth.

16 The highest heavens belong to the Lord,(I)
    but the earth he has given(J) to mankind.
17 It is not the dead(K) who praise the Lord,
    those who go down to the place of silence;
18 it is we who extol the Lord,(L)
    both now and forevermore.(M)

Praise the Lord.[a](N)

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.

17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence.

18 But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord.
