   2: Jehovah doth build up Jerusalem; He gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
   3: He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds.
   4: He counteth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by [their] names.
   5: Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
   6: Jehovah upholdeth the meek: He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.

   15: He sendeth out his commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
   16: He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
   17: He casteth forth his ice like morsels: Who can stand before his cold?
   18: He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
   19: He showeth his word unto Jacob, His statutes and his ordinances unto Israel.
   20: He hath not dealt so with any nation; And as for his ordinances, they have not known them. Praise ye Jehovah.
