2The Lord is building up Jerusalem; he makes all the outlaws of Israel come together.
3He makes the broken-hearted well, and puts oil on their wounds.
4He sees the number of the stars; he gives them all their names.
5Great is our Lord, and great his power; there is no limit to his wisdom.
6The Lord gives help to the poor in spirit; but he sends sinners down in shame.
7Make songs of praise to the Lord; make melody to our God with instruments of music.
8By his hand the heaven is covered with clouds and rain is stored up for the earth; he makes the grass tall on the mountains.
9He gives food to every beast, and to the young ravens in answer to their cry.
10He has no delight in the strength of a horse; he takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
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.
