Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggæus and Zacharias. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O .
For he has strengthened the bars of thy gates; he has blessed thy children within thee.
He makes thy borders peaceful, and fills thee with the flour of wheat.
He sends his oracle to the earth: his word will run swiftly.
He gives snow like wool: he scatters the mist like ashes.
Casting [forth] his ice like morsels: who shall stand before his cold?
He shall send out his word, and melt them: he shall blow [with] his wind, and the waters shall flow.
He sends his word to Jacob, his ordinances and judgments to Israel.
He has not done so to any [other] nation; and he has not shewn them his judgments.
