1. Praise you the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is fitting.
2. The LORD does build up Jerusalem: he gathers together the outcasts of Israel.
3. He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.
4. He determines the number of the stars; he calls them all by their names.
5. Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
6. The LORD lifts up the meek: he casts the wicked down to the ground.
7. Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
8. Who covers the heaven with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
