PS-147:1 Praise ye the LORD: for [it is] good to sing praises
unto our God;
for [it is] pleasant; [and] praise is comely.
PS-147:2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together
the outcasts
of Israel.
PS-147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their
wounds.
PS-147:4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all
by [their]
names.
PS-147:5 Great [is] our Lord, and of great power: his
understanding [is]
infinite.
PS-147:6 The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked
down to the
ground.
PS-147:7 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon
the harp unto
our God:
PS-147:8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain
for the
earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
PS-147:9 He giveth to the beast his food, [and] to the young
ravens which cry.
PS-147:10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he
taketh not
pleasure in the legs of a man.
PS-147:11 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in
those that hope
in his mercy.
PS-147:12 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
PS-147:13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he
hath blessed thy
children within thee.
PS-147:14 He maketh peace [in] thy borders, [and] filleth thee
with the finest
of the wheat.
PS-147:15 He sendeth forth his commandment [upon] earth: his
word runneth very
swiftly.
PS-147:16 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost
like ashes.
PS-147:17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand
before his
cold?
PS-147:18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth
his wind to
blow, [and] the waters flow.
PS-147:19 He showeth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his
judgments unto
Israel.
PS-147:20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and [as for his]
judgments,
they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
