ASV - Psalms - 147

147:1  Praise ye Jehovah; For it is good to sing praises unto our God; For it is pleasant, andpraise is comely.

147:2  Jehovah doth build up Jerusalem; He gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

147:3  He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds.

147:4  He counteth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names.

147:5  Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.

147:6  Jehovah upholdeth the meek: He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.

147:7  Sing unto Jehovah with thanksgiving; Sing praises upon the harp unto our God,

147:8  Who covereth the heavens with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

147:9  He giveth to the beast his food, Andto the young ravens which cry.

147:10  He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.

147:11  Jehovah taketh pleasure in them that fear him, In those that hope in his lovingkindness.

147:12  Praise Jehovah, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion.

147:13  For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.

147:14  He maketh peace in thy borders; He filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

147:15  He sendeth out his commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.

147:16  He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.

147:17  He casteth forth his ice like morsels: Who can stand before his cold?

147:18  He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

147:19  He showeth his word unto Jacob, His statutes and his ordinances unto Israel.

147:20  He hath not dealt so with any nation; And as for his ordinances, they have not known them. Praise ye Jehovah.
