[12]Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.[13]Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.[14]Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.[15]Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.[16]Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.[17]He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?[18]He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.[19]Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.[20]He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
