Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem!
Praise your God, O Zion!
13
For He has strengthened the bars of your gates;
He has blessed your children within you.
14
p He makes peace in your borders,
And q fills you with 1 the finest wheat.
15
r He sends out His command to the earth;
His word runs very swiftly.
16
s He gives snow like wool;
He scatters the frost like ashes;
17
He casts out His hail like 2 morsels;
Who can stand before His cold?
18
t He sends out His word and melts them;
He causes His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19
u He declares His word to Jacob,
v His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
20
w He has not dealt thus with any nation;
And as for His judgments, they have not known them.
3 Praise the LORD!
