1. Halelu-JAH: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for praise is pleasant and beautiful.
2. The Lord, he who builds up Jerusalem; shall gather together the outcasts of Israel.
3. He heals the broken hearted, and he binds up their wounds.
4. He counts the number of the stars and calls them all by their names.
5. Great is our Lord and of great power; his intelligence is infinite.
6. The Lord lifts up the humble; he casts the wicked down to the earth.
7. Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
8. Who covers the heavens with clouds, who prepares the rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
