Zion!13. For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your sons within you.14. He
makes peace in your borders; He satisfies you
with the finest of the wheat.15. He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs very
swiftly.16. He gives snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes.17. He casts forth His ice as
fragments; Who can stand before His cold?18. He sends forth His word and melts them; He causes
His wind to blow and the waters to flow.19. He declares His words to Jacob, His statutes and His
ordinances to Israel.20. He has not dealt thus with any nation; And as for His ordinances, they
have not known them. Praise the LORD !
