1 Alleluia.Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.
2 Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.
3 Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.
4 Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.
5 Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.
