- 1
Praise the LORD, for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and fitting to praise him.
- 2
The LORD builds up Jerusalem. He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.
- 3
He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.
- 4
He counts the number of the stars. He calls them all by their names.
- 5
Great is our Lord, and mighty in power. His understanding is infinite.
- 6
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.
- 10
He doesn’t delight in the strength of the horse. He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
- 11
The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness.
- 12
Praise the LORD, Jerusalem! Praise your God, Zion!
- 13
For he has strengthened the bars of your gates. He has blessed your children within you.
- 14
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.
- 16
He gives snow like wool, and scatters frost like ashes.
- 17
He hurls down his hail like pebbles. Who can stand before his cold?
- 18
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!
- 1
ALABAD á JAH, porque es bueno cantar salmos á nuestro Dios; porque suave y hermosa es la alabanza.
- 2
Jehová edifica á Jerusalem; á los echados de Israel recogerá.
- 3
El sana á los quebrantados de corazón, y liga sus heridas.
- 4
El cuenta el número de las estrellas; á todas ellas llama por sus nombres.
- 5
Grande es el Señor nuestro, y de mucha potencia; y de su entendimiento no hay número.
- 6
Jehová ensalza á los humildes; humilla los impíos hasta la tierra.
- 7
Cantad á Jehová con alabanza, cantad con arpa á nuestro Dios.
- 8
El es el que cubre los cielos de nubes, el que prepara la lluvia para la tierra, el que hace á los montes producir hierba.
- 9
El da á la bestia su mantenimiento, y á los hijos de los cuervos que claman.
- 10
No toma contentamiento en la fortaleza del caballo, ni se complace en las piernas del hombre.
- 11
Complácese Jehová en los que le temen, y en los que esperan en su misericordia.
- 12
Alaba á Jehová, Jerusalem; alaba á tu Dios, Sión.
- 13
Porque fortificó los cerrojos de tus puertas; bendijo á tus hijos dentro de ti.
- 14
El pone en tu término la paz; te hará saciar de grosura de trigo.
- 15
El envía su palabra á la tierra; muy presto corre su palabra.
- 16
El da la nieve como lana, derrama la escarcha como ceniza.
- 17
El echa su hielo como pedazos: delante de su frío ¿quién estará?
- 18
Enviará su palabra, y los derretirá: soplará su viento, y fluirán las aguas.
- 19
El denuncia sus palabras á Jacob, sus estatutos y sus juicios á Israel.
- 20
No ha hecho esto con toda gente; y no conocieron sus juicios. Aleluya.
