Psalms 147 (kjv)

147

PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050: for it is goodH2896 to sing praisesH2167 unto our GodH430; for it is pleasantH5273; and praiseH8416 is comelyH5000.2The LORDH3068 doth build upH1129 JerusalemH3389: he gathereth togetherH3664 the outcastsH1760 of IsraelH3478.3He healethH7495 the brokenH7665 in heartH3820, and bindeth upH2280 their woundsH6094.

4He tellethH4487 the numberH4557 of the starsH3556; he callethH7121 them all by their namesH8034.5GreatH1419 is our LordH113, and of greatH7227 powerH3581: his understandingH8394 is infiniteH4557.

6The LORDH3068 lifteth upH5749 the meekH6035: he castethH8213 the wickedH7563 downH8213 to the groundH776.

7SingH6030 unto the LORDH3068 with thanksgivingH8426; sing praiseH2167 upon the harpH3658 unto our GodH430:8Who coverethH3680 the heavenH8064 with cloudsH5645, who preparethH3559 rainH4306 for the earthH776, who maketh grassH2682 to growH6779 upon the mountainsH2022.9He givethH5414 to the beastH929 his foodH3899, and to the youngH1121 ravensH6158 which cryH7121.10He delightethH2654 not in the strengthH1369 of the horseH5483: he taketh not pleasureH7521 in the legsH7785 of a manH376.11The LORDH3068 taketh pleasureH7521 in them that fearH3373 him, in those that hopeH3176 in his mercyH2617.

12PraiseH7623 the LORDH3068, O JerusalemH3389; praiseH1984 thy GodH430, O ZionH6726.13For he hath strengthenedH2388 the barsH1280 of thy gatesH8179; he hath blessedH1288 thy childrenH1121 withinH7130 thee.14He makethH7760 peaceH7965 in thy bordersH1366, and fillethH7646 thee with the finestH2459 of the wheatH2406.

15He sendeth forthH7971 his commandmentH565 upon earthH776: his wordH1697 runnethH7323 very swiftlyH4120.16He givethH5414 snowH7950 like woolH6785: he scatterethH6340 the hoarfrostH3713 like ashesH665.17He casteth forthH7993 his iceH7140 like morselsH6595: who can standH5975 beforeH6440 his coldH7135?18He sendeth outH7971 his wordH1697, and meltethH4529 them: he causeth his windH7307 to blowH5380, and the watersH4325 flowH5140.

19He shewethH5046 his wordH1697 H1697 unto JacobH3290, his statutesH2706 and his judgmentsH4941 unto IsraelH3478.20He hath not dealtH6213 so with any nationH1471: and as for his judgmentsH4941, they have not knownH3045 them. PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050.
