1. Praise the Lord.How good it is to sing praises to our God,how pleasant and fitting to praise him!
2. The Lord builds up Jerusalem;he gathers the exiles of Israel.
3. He heals the broken-heartedand binds up their wounds.
4. He determines the number of the starsand calls them each by name.
5. Great is our Lord and mighty in power;his understanding has no limit.
6. The Lord sustains the humblebut casts the wicked to the ground.
7. Sing to the Lord with grateful praise;make music to our God on the harp.
8. He covers the sky with clouds;he supplies the earth with rainand makes grass grow on the hills.
9. He provides food for the cattleand for the young ravens when they call.
10. His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;
