Psalm 147

147 Hallelujah.

Praise the Eternal, for he is good;

make melody to our God, for he is gracious.

2 The Eternal restores Jerusalem,

he gathers the outcasts of Israel,

3 he heals the broken-hearted

and binds up their wounds.

4 He fixes the number of the stars,

and gives a name to each.

5 Great is our Lord, mighty in power,

his wisdom is unsearchable.

6 The Eternal has relief for the afflicted,

he brings the ungodly to the ground.

7 Sing thanks to the Eternal,

make melody to our God upon the lyre,

8 who covers the sky with clouds,

provides rain for the earth,

till grass grows on the very hills,

and fodder for the beasts that serve mankind,

9 who gives wild animals their food,

that cry for it at eventide.

10 He cares not for the strength of the war-horse,

delights not in man’s armour;

11 the Eternal delights in those who revere him,

who trust to his own goodness.

12 Praise the Eternal, O Jerusalem,

praise your God, O Sion;

13 for he has fortified your gateways,

and blessed your citizens within,

14 has made Peace guard your boundaries,

and filled you with the finest wheat.

15 He issues his commands to earth,

his orders run apace,

16 showering snow white as wool,

scattering hoarfrost thick as ashes,

16 casting hailstones down like crumbs.

The waters freeze;

17 he sends an order, and they melt;

once he makes the wind blow,

then the waters flow.

19 He makes his purpose known to Jacob,

his orders and his laws to Israel;

20 never has he done so to other nations–

they know not his commands.
