RWebster - Psalms - 147

147:1  Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

147:2  The LORD buildeth 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 telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

147:5  Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

147:6  The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

147:7  Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp to our God:

147:8  Who covereth the heaven 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, and to the young ravens which cry.

147:10  He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

147:11  The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

147:12  Praise the LORD, 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, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

147:15  He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

147:16  He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost 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 to Jacob, his statutes and his judgments to Israel.

147:20  He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
