Psalms 147

1Alleluia. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem. Praise your God, O Zion.

2For he has reinforced the bars of your gates. He has blessed your sons within you.

3He has stationed peace at your borders, and he has satisfied you with the fat of the grain.

4He sends forth his eloquence to the earth. His word runs swiftly.

5He provides snow like wool. He strews clouds like ashes.

6He sends his ice crystals like morsels. Who can stand firm before the face of his cold?

7He will send forth his word, and it will melt them. His Spirit will breathe out, and the waters will flow.

8He announces his word to Jacob, his justices and his judgments to Israel.

9He has not done so much for every nation, and he has not made his judgments manifest to them. Alleluia.
