1 Praise the Lord!For it is good to sing praises to our God;for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem;he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenheartedand binds up their wounds.
4 He determines the number of the stars;he gives to all of them their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure.
