1Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.→2The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.→3He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.→4He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.→5Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.→6The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.→7Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:→8Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.→9He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.→10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.→11The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.→12Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.→13For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.→14He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.→15He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.→16He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.→17He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?→18He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.→19He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.→20He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.→
