1Alleluia, a Psalm of Aggæus and Zacharias.

Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Sion. 2For he has strengthened the bars of thy gates; he has blessed thy children within thee. 3He makes thy borders peaceful, and fills thee with the flour of wheat. 4He sends his oracle to the earth: his word will run swiftly. 5He gives snow like wool: he scatters the mist like ashes. 6Casting forth his ice like morsels: who shall stand before his cold? 7He shall send out his word, and melt them: he shall blow with his wind, and the waters shall flow. 8He sends his word to Jacob, his ordinances and judgments to Israel. 9He has not done so to any other nation; and he has not shewn them his judgments.
