Psalms 147:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 147:7

5 ^aGreat is our Lord, and ^bmighty in power;
^cHis understanding is infinite.

6 ^aThe Lord lifts up the humble;
He casts the wicked down to the ground.

7 Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;
Sing praises on the harp to our God,

8 ^aWho covers the heavens with clouds,
Who prepares rain for the earth,
Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.

9 ^aHe gives to the beast its food,
And ^bto the young ravens that cry.

10 ^aHe does not delight in the strength of the horse;
He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
