7. Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;with the lyre make music to our God,
8. Who covers the heavens with clouds,provides rain for the earth,makes grass sprout on the mountains,
9. Who gives animals their foodand young ravens what they cry for.
10. He takes no delight in the strength of horses,no pleasure in the runner’s stride.
11. Rather the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear him,those who put their hope in his mercy.
12. Glorify the Lord, Jerusalem;Zion, offer praise to your God,
13. For he has strengthened the bars of your gates,blessed your children within you.
