Praise ye Jah! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant—comely [is] praise. |
2
|
Building Jerusalem [is] Jehovah, The driven away of Israel He gathereth. |
3
|
Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs. |
4
|
Appointing the number of the stars, To all them He giveth names. |
5
|
Great [is] our Lord, and abundant in power, Of His understanding there is no narration. |
6
|
Jehovah is causing the meek to stand, Making low the wicked unto the earth. |
7
|
Answer ye to Jehovah with thanksgiving, Sing ye to our God with a harp. |
8
|
Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains, |
9
|
Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call. |
10
|
Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased. |
11
|
Jehovah is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness. |
12
|
Glorify, O Jerusalem, Jehovah, Praise thy God, O Zion. |
13
|
For He did strengthen the bars of thy gates, He hath blessed thy sons in thy midst. |
14
|
Who is making thy border peace, [With] the fat of wheat He satisfieth Thee. |
15
|
Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, Very speedily doth His word run. |
16
|
Who is giving snow like wool, Hoar-frost as ashes He scattereth. |
17
|
Casting forth His ice like morsels, Before His cold who doth stand? |
18
|
He sendeth forth His word and melteth them, He causeth His wind to blow—the waters flow. |
19
|
Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel. |
20
|
He hath not done so to any nation, As to judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye Jah! |
