1 Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him! | C | TOSK |
2 The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel. | C | TOSK |
3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. | C | TOSK |
4 He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name. | C | TOSK |
5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit. | C | TOSK |
6 The LORD sustains the humble, but casts the wicked to the ground. | C | TOSK |
7 Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God, | C | TOSK |
8 who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills. | C | TOSK |
9 He provides food for the animals, and for the young ravens when they call. | C | TOSK |
10 He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legpower of the man. | C | TOSK |
11 The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion. | C | TOSK |
12 Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion! | C | TOSK |
13 For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you. | C | TOSK |
14 He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat. | C | TOSK |
15 He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs swiftly. | C | TOSK |
16 He spreads the snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes; | C | TOSK |
17 He casts forth His hail like pebbles. Who can withstand His icy blast? | C | TOSK |
18 He sends forth His word and melts them; He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow. | C | TOSK |
19 He declares His word to Jacob, His statutes and judgments to Israel. | C | TOSK |
20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know His judgments. Hallelujah! | C | TOSK |
