147:1  Halelu-JAH: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for praise is pleasant and beautiful.
147:2  The LORD, he who builds up Jerusalem; shall gather together the outcasts of Israel.
147:3  He heals the broken hearted, and he binds up their wounds.
147:4  He counts the number of the stars and calls them all by their names.
147:5  Great is our Lord and of great power; his intelligence is infinite.
147:6  The LORD lifts up the humble; he casts the wicked down to the earth.
147:7  Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
147:8  Who covers the heavens with clouds, who prepares the rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
147:9  He who gives the beast his food and to the sons of the ravens which cry unto him.
147:10  He does not delight in the strength of the horse; nor does he take pleasure in the legs of a man.
147:11  The LORD takes pleasure in those that fear him, in those that wait upon his mercy.
147:12  Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
147:13  For he has strengthened the bars of thy gates; he has blessed thy sons within thee.
147:14  He who makes peace to be thy borders shall fill thee with the finest of the wheat.
147:15  He sends forth his word upon earth; his word runs very swiftly.
147:16  He who gives snow like wool scatters the hoarfrost like ashes.
147:17  He casts forth his ice like morsels; who can stand before his cold?
147:18  He shall send forth his word and melt them; his wind shall blow, and the waters shall flow.
147:19  He declares his words unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
147:20  He has not dealt so with the other nations, which have not known his judgments. Halelu-JAH.
