The LORD lifts up the meek: he casts the wicked down to the ground.
7 Cantad á Jehová con alabanza, cantad con arpa á nuestro Dios.
Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
8 El [es] el que cubre los cielos de nubes, el que prepara la lluvia para la tierra, el que hace á los montes producir hierba.
Who covers the heaven with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 El da á la bestia su mantenimiento, [y] á los hijos de los cuervos que claman.
He gives to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
10 No toma contentamiento en la fortaleza del caballo, ni se complace en las piernas del hombre.
He delights not in the strength of the horse: he takes not pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 Complácese Jehová en los que le temen, y en los que esperan en su misericordia.
The LORD takes pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
12 Alaba á Jehová, Jerusalem; alaba á tu Dios, Sión.
Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion.
13 Porque fortificó los cerrojos de tus puertas; bendijo á tus hijos dentro de ti.
For he has strengthened the bars of your gates; he has blessed your children within you.

He makes peace in your borders, and fills you with the finest of the wheat.
15 El envía su palabra á la tierra; muy presto corre su palabra.
He sends forth his commandment upon earth: his word runs very swiftly.
16 El da la nieve como lana, derrama la escarcha como ceniza.
He gives snow like wool: he scatters the hoarfrost like ashes.
17 El echa su hielo como pedazos: delante de su frío ¿quién estará?
He casts forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
18 Enviará su palabra, y los derretirá: soplará su viento, y fluirán las aguas.
He sends out his word, and melts them: he causes his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 El denuncia sus palabras á Jacob, sus estatutos y sus juicios á Israel.
He shows his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
20 No ha hecho esto con toda gente; y no conocieron sus juicios. Aleluya.
He has not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise all of you the LORD.
