| 1 | Hallelujah; 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 dispersed of Israel; |
| 3 | Who healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds. |
| 4 | He counteth the number of the stars; He giveth them all their names. |
| 5 | Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite. |
| 6 | The LORD upholdeth the humble; He bringeth the wicked down to the ground. |
| 7 | Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving, Sing praises upon the harp unto our God; |
| 8 | Who covereth the heaven with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who maketh the mountains to spring with grass. |
| 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 no pleasure in the legs of a man. |
| 11 | The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, In those that wait for His mercy. |
| 12 | Glorify the LORD, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion. |
| 13 | For He hath made strong the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee. |
| 14 | He maketh thy borders peace; He giveth thee in plenty the fat of wheat. |
| 15 | He sendeth out His commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly. |
| 16 | He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes. |
| 17 | He casteth forth His ice like crumbs; Who can stand before His cold? |
| 18 | He sendeth forth His word, and melteth them; He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow. |
| 19 | He declareth His word unto Jacob, His statutes and His ordinances unto Israel. |
| 20 | He hath not dealt so with any nation; And as for His ordinances, they have not known them. Hallelujah. |
