2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem;(A)
he gathers the exiles(B) of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenhearted(C)
and binds up their wounds.(D)
4 He determines the number of the stars(E)
and calls them each by name.

his understanding has no limit.(H)
6 The Lord sustains the humble(I)
but casts the wicked(J) to the ground.
8 He covers the sky with clouds;(O)
he supplies the earth with rain(P)
and makes grass grow(Q) on the hills.
9 He provides food(R) for the cattle
and for the young ravens(S) when they call.
10 His pleasure is not in the strength(T) of the horse,(U)
nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;

4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
6 The Lord lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
7 Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
