11 The Lord is pleased onlywith those who worship himand trust his love.
12 Everyone in Jerusalem,come and praisethe Lord your God!
13 He makes your city gates strongand blesses your people.
14 God lets you live in peace,and he gives youthe very best wheat.
15 As soon as God speaks,the earth obeys.
16 He covers the ground with snowlike a blanket of wool,and he scatters frostlike ashes on the ground.
17 God sends down hailstoneslike chips of rocks.Who can stand the cold?
