147
1 Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him!
2 The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
4 He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name.
5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.
6 The LORD sustains the humble, but casts the wicked to the ground.
7 Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God,
8 who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills.
9 He provides food for the animals, and for the young ravens when they call.
10 He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.
12 Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion!
13 For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you.
14 He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.
15 He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs swiftly.
16 He spreads the snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes;
17 He casts forth His hail like pebbles. Who can withstand His icy blast?
18 He sends forth His word and melts them; He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow.
19 He declares His word to Jacob, His statutes and judgments to Israel.
20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know His judgments. Hallelujah!
