147:1  Praise ye Jah! For `it is' good to praise our God, For pleasant -- comely `is' praise.

147:2  Building Jerusalem `is' Jehovah, The driven away of Israel He gathereth.

147:3  Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.

147:4  Appointing the number of the stars, To all them He giveth names.

147:5  Great `is' our Lord, and abundant in power, Of His understanding there is no narration.

147:6  Jehovah is causing the meek to stand, Making low the wicked unto the earth.

147:7  Answer ye to Jehovah with thanksgiving, Sing ye to our God with a harp.

147:8  Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up `on' mountains,

147:9  Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.

147:10  Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased.

147:11  Jehovah is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.

147:12  Glorify, O Jerusalem, Jehovah, Praise thy God, O Zion.

147:13  For He did strengthen the bars of thy gates, He hath blessed thy sons in thy midst.

147:14  Who is making thy border peace, `With' the fat of wheat He satisfieth Thee.

147:15  Who is sending forth His saying `on' earth, Very speedily doth His word run.

147:16  Who is giving snow like wool, Hoar-frost as ashes He scattereth.

147:17  Casting forth His ice like morsels, Before His cold who doth stand?

147:18  He sendeth forth His word and melteth them, He causeth His wind to blow -- the waters flow.

147:19  Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.

147:20  He hath not done so to any nation, As to judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye Jah!
