11The Lord taketh pleasure in those that fear him, that wait for his kindness.
12Glorify, O Jerusalem, the Lord: praise thy God, O Zion.
13For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children in the midst of thee;
14He who bestoweth peace in thy borders, who satisfieth thee with the best of wheat;
15He who sendeth forth his decree unto the earth: how swiftly speedeth his word along!
16He who dispenseth snow like wool; who streweth about the hoarfrost like ashes;
17He who casteth down his ice like pieces: before his cold who can stand?
18He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and waters run along.
19He declareth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his ordinances unto Israel.
20He hath not done so unto any nation: and his ordinances— these they know not. Hallelujah.
