Psalm 147
1 Alleluia, a Psalm of Aggeus and Zacharias.[1]
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem;
praise thy God, O Sion.
2 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates;
he hath blessed thy children within thee.
3 He maketh thy borders peaceful,
and filleth thee with the [2]flour of wheat.
4 He sendeth his oracle to the earth:
his word will run swiftly.
5 He giveth snow like wool:
he scattereth the mist like ashes.
6 Casting forth his ice like morsels:
who shall stand before his cold?
7 He shall send out his word, and melt them:
he shall blow with his wind, and the waters shall flow.
8 He sendeth his word to Jacob,
his ordinances and judgments to Israel.
9 He hath not done so to [3]any other nation;
and he hath not shown them his judgments.
