Chapter 147

1

 Praise ye the LORD: for [it is] good to sing praises unto our God; for [it is] pleasant; [and] praise is comely. 

 


2

 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel. 

 


3

 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. 

 


4

 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by [their] names. 

 


5

 Great [is] our Lord, and of great power: his understanding [is] infinite. 

 


6

 The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground. 

 


7

 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: 

 


8

 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains. 

 


9

 He giveth to the beast his food, [and] to the young ravens which cry. 

 


10

 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man. 

 


11

 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy. 

 


12

 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion. 

 


13

 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee. 

 


14

 He maketh peace [in] thy borders, [and] filleth thee with the finest of the wheat. 

 


15

 He sendeth forth his commandment [upon] earth: his word runneth very swiftly. 

 


16

 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes. 

 


17

 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold? 

 


18

 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, [and] the waters flow. 

 


19

 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel. 

 


20

 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and [as for his] judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
