147:1  Praise you the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is fitting.
147:2  The LORD does build up Jerusalem: he gathers together the outcasts of Israel.
147:3  He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.
147:4  He determines the number of the stars; he calls them all by their names.
147:5  Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
147:6  The LORD lifts up the meek: he casts the wicked down to the ground.
147:7  Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
147:8  Who covers the heaven with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
147:9  He gives to the beast its food, and to the young ravens that cry.
147:10  He delights not in the strength of the horse: he takes not pleasure in the legs of a man.
147:11  The LORD takes pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
147:12  Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion.
147:13  For he has strengthened the bars of your gates; he has blessed your children within you.
147:14  He makes peace in your borders, and fills you with the finest of the wheat.
147:15  He sends forth his commandment upon earth: his word runs very swiftly.
147:16  He gives snow like wool: he scatters the frost like ashes.
147:17  He casts forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
147:18  He sends out his word, and melts them: he causes his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
147:19  He shows his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
147:20  He has not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise you the LORD.
