1Хвали, Иерусалиме, Господа; хвали, Сионе, твоя Бог,2защото Той укрепява заворките на твоите порти, благославя твоите синове сред тебе;3утвърдява в твоите предели мир, с тлъста пшеница те насища; (Вт 32:14)4праща на земята Своето слово; Неговото слово бързо върви;5дава сняг като вълна; сипе скреж като пепел; (Сир 43:19)6хвърля градушката Си на късове; пред Неговия мраз кой ще устои?7Прати словото Си, и всичко се разтапя; духне с вятъра Си, и води потекат. (Пс 32:9)8Той яви Своето слово Иакову, Своите наредби и Своите съдби – Израилю. (Д А 13:17)9На никой друг народ Той не е сторил това, и Неговите съдби те не знаят. Алилуия. (Вт 29:29; Вт 33:4; Рим 2:3)
1Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant,[1] and a song of praise is fitting. (Пс 33:1; Пс 92:1; Пс 135:1; Пс 135:3)2The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel. (Вт 30:3; Пс 51:18; Пс 102:16; Ис 11:12; Ис 27:13; Ис 56:8; Ез 39:28)3He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. (Пс 34:18; Ез 34:16)4He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names. (Бит 15:5; Ис 40:26)5Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure. (Йов 5:9; Пс 48:1; Ис 40:28; Наум 1:3)6The Lord lifts up the humble;[2] he casts the wicked to the ground. (Пс 146:8)7Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make melody to our God on the lyre! (Изх 15:21; 1 Лет 15:16; Пс 95:1)8He covers the heavens with clouds; he prepares rain for the earth; he makes grass grow on the hills. (Йов 5:10; Йов 38:27; Пс 104:14)9He gives to the beasts their food, and to the young ravens that cry. (Йов 38:41; Пс 104:27)10His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the legs of a man, (Пс 33:17)11but the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love. (Пс 33:18; Пс 149:4)12Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!13For he strengthens the bars of your gates; he blesses your children within you. (Неем 7:3)14He makes peace in your borders; he fills you with the finest of the wheat. (Изх 34:24; Вт 32:14; Пс 81:16; Пс 132:15; Пр 16:7; Ис 60:17)15He sends out his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly. (Пс 148:8)16He gives snow like wool; he scatters frost like ashes. (Йов 37:6; Йов 38:29)17He hurls down his crystals of ice like crumbs; who can stand before his cold? (Йов 37:9; Йов 37:10)18He sends out his word, and melts them; he makes his wind blow and the waters flow. (Йов 37:12; Пс 33:9; Пс 107:20; Пс 147:15)19He declares his word to Jacob, his statutes and rules[3] to Israel. (Вт 33:2; Пс 78:5; Мал 4:4)20He has not dealt thus with any other nation; they do not know his rules.[4] Praise the Lord! (Вт 4:7; Вт 4:32; Пс 135:1)
