| 12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion. | |
| 13 Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee. | |
| 14 Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn. | |
| 15 Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly. | |
| 16 Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes. | |
| 17 He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold? | |
| 18 He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run. | |
| 19 Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel. | |
| 20 He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia. |
