It is good to sing praise

1
Praise ye the Lord, because psalm is good: to our God be joyful and comely praise.
2
The Lord buildeth up Jerusalem: he will gather together the dispersed of Israel.
3
Who healeth the broken of heart, and bindeth up their bruises.
4
Who telleth the number of the stars: and calleth them all by their names.
5
Great is our Lord, and great is his power: and of his wisdom there is no number.
6
The Lord lifteth up the meek, and bringeth the wicked down even to the ground.
7
Sing ye to the Lord with praise: sing to our God upon the harp.
8
Who covereth the heaven with clouds, and prepareth rain for the earth. Who maketh grass to grow on the mountains, and herbs for the service of men.
9
Who giveth to beasts their food: and to the young ravens that call upon him.
10
He shall not delight in the strength of the horse: nor take pleasure in the legs of a man.
11
The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him: and in them that hope in his mercy.
12
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.
13
Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.
14
Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.
15
Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.
16
Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.
17
He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?
18
He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.
19
Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.
20
He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.

Great is our Lord, and mighty in power. His understanding is infinite.

The LORD upholds the humble. He brings the wicked down to the ground.
7
Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving. Sing praises on the harp to our God,
8
who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass grow on the mountains.
9
He provides food for the livestock, and for the young ravens when they call.

For he has strengthened the bars of your gates. He has blessed your children within you.

He makes peace in your borders. He fills you with the finest of the wheat.
15
He sends out his commandment to the earth. His word runs very swiftly.

He gives snow like wool, and scatters frost like ashes.
17
He hurls down his hail like pebbles. Who can stand before his cold?

He sends out his word, and melts them. He causes his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19
He shows his word to Jacob, his statutes and his ordinances to Israel.
20
He has not done this for just any nation. They don’t know his ordinances. Praise the LORD!
