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