Psalm
R. Praise the Lord, Jerusalem. or R. Alleluia!
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion! For he strengthens the bars of your gates; he blesses your children within you. R.
He grants peace within your borders; he fills you with the finest of wheat. He sends out his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly. R.
He declares his word to Jacob, his statutes and ordinances to Israel. He has not dealt thus with any other nation; they do not know his ordinances. R.
