Praise the Lord!
For it is good to sing praises to our God, for He is gracious
and lovely; praise is becoming and appropriate.
The Lord is building up Jerusalem; He gathered together the exiles of Israel.
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds, curing their pains and sorrows.
He determines and counts the number of the stars; He calls them by their names.
Great is our Lord and of great power. His understanding is inexhaustible and boundless.
The Lord lifts up the humble and downtrodden; He casts the wicked down to the ground.
Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praises with the harp or lyre to our God!
Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who prepares rain for the earth,
Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.
He gives to the beast his food, and to the young ravens that for which they cry.
He delights not in the strength of the horse, nor does He take pleasure in the legs of a man.
The Lord takes pleasure in those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him,
in those who hope in His mercy and loving-kindness.
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!
(Psalm 147:1-12)
Sabbath Blessings and God's Peace be upon Eretz Yisrael.
