James 5:13

13Is any of you sad? Let him pray. Is he even-tempered? Let him sing psalms.
5:13When one is sad, praying lifts one up out of sadness. When one is calm, singing psalms lifts one up again, to exultation. The expression ‘aequo amino’ refers to a calm and level mood. The word ‘psallat’ is not merely singing but the singing of hymns and psalms.(Conte)
