11The Lord takes pleasure in his worshippers, and in those whose hope is in his mercy.
12Give praise to the Lord, O Jerusalem; give praise to your God, O Zion.
13He has made strong the iron bands of your doors; he has sent blessings on your children inside your walls.
14He gives peace in all your land, making your stores full of fat grain.
15He sends out his orders to the earth; his word goes out quickly.
16He gives snow like wool; he sends out ice-drops like dust.
17He sends down ice like raindrops: water is made hard by his cold.
18At the outgoing of his word, the ice is turned to water; when he sends out his wind, there is a flowing of waters.
