[1] Praise YAH! For [it is] good to praise our God, || For pleasant—lovely [is] praise. [2] YHWH [is] building Jerusalem, || He gathers the driven away of Israel. [3] Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, || And is binding up their griefs. [4] Appointing the number of the stars, || He gives names to all of them. [5] Our Lord [is] great, and abundant in power, || There is no narration of His understanding. [6] YHWH is causing the meek to stand, || Making the wicked low to the earth. [7] Answer to YHWH with thanksgiving, || Sing to our God with a harp. [8] Who is covering the heavens with clouds, || Who is preparing rain for the earth, || Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains, [9] Giving to the beast its food, || To the young of the ravens that call. [10] He does not delight in the might of the horse, || He is not pleased in the legs of a man. [11] YHWH is pleased with those fearing Him, || With those waiting for His kindness. [12] Glorify, O Jerusalem, YHWH, || Praise your God, O Zion. [13] For He strengthened the bars of your gates, || He has blessed your sons in your midst. [14] Who is making your border peace, || He satisfies you [with] the fat of wheat. [15] Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, || His word runs very speedily. [16] Who is giving snow like wool, || He scatters hoarfrost as ashes. [17] Casting forth His ice like morsels, || Who stands before His cold? [18] He sends forth His word and melts them, || He causes His wind to blow—the waters flow. [19] Declaring His words to Jacob, || His statutes and His judgments to Israel. [20] He has not done so to any nation, || As for judgments, they have not known them. Praise YAH!
