147:1  It is good to sing to our God, and sweet, and praise is fitting for him.
147:2  Lord Jehovah built Jerusalem and the scattered ones of Israel he gathered.
147:3  He heals the broken hearts and binds up their sorrows.
147:4  He counts the number of the stars and he calls all of them by names.
147:5  Great is our Lord and he is strong in his power and there is no end to his understanding.
147:6  Lord Jehovah raises the poor and humbles the evil unto the dirt.
147:7  Praise Lord Jehovah with glory; sing to Lord Jehovah with harps
147:8  Who hides Heaven with clouds; he gives rain upon the Earth and he makes the grass sprout upon the mountains.
147:9  And he gives food to the beasts and to the young ravens that cry.
147:10  Lord Jehovah does not delight in the power of a horse, neither delights in the legs of a mighty man.
147:11  But Lord Jehovah delights in his worshipers and those who expect his grace.
147:12  Praise Lord Jehovah, oh, Jerusalem; praise your God, oh, Zion!
147:13  Because he has strengthened the bars of your gates and blessed your sons within you.
147:14  He established your borders in peace and he satisfied you with the fatness of wheat.
147:15  He sends his word upon Earth and his answer runs quickly.
147:16  He gives snow like wool and he scatters frost like ashes.
147:17  He casts ice like morsels; who is able to stand before his cold?
147:18  He sends his word and melts them; he makes the winds blow and the waters flow.
147:19  He shows his word in Jacob, his laws and his commandments in Israel.
147:20  He has not done so for all the nations, neither has he shown them his judgments.
