1Alleluia, a Psalm of Haggai and Zechariah. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion.
2For he has strengthened the bars of thy gates; He has blessed thy children within thee.
3He makes thy borders peaceful, And fills thee with the flour of wheat.
4He sends his oracle to the earth: His word will run swiftly.
5He gives snow like wool: He scatters the mist like ashes.
6Casting forth his ice like morsels: Who shall stand before his cold?
7He shall send out his word, and melt them: He shall blow with his wind, and the waters shall flow.
