1Praise the LORD ,[#147:1 Hebrew: יה Yah]
for it is good to sing praises to our God ;
for it is pleasant and fitting to praise him .
2The LORD builds up Jerusalem .[#147:2 or GOD in all caps is from the Hebrew יהוה Yahweh except when otherwise noted as being from the short form יה Yah.]
He gathers together the outcasts of Israel .
3He heals the broken in heart ,
and binds up their wounds .
4He counts the number of the stars .
He calls them all by their names .
5Great is our Lord, and mighty in power .
His understanding is infinite .
6The LORD upholds the humble .
He brings the wicked down to the ground.
7Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving .
Sing praises on the harp to our God ,
8who covers the sky with clouds ,
who prepares rain for the earth ,
who makes grass grow on the mountains .
9He provides food for the livestock,
and for the young ravens when they call .
10He doesn’t delight in the strength of the horse .
He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
11The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him ,
in those who hope in his loving kindness .
12Praise the LORD , Jerusalem !
Praise your God , Zion !
13For he has strengthened the bars of your gates .
He has blessed your children within you .
14He makes peace in your borders .
He fills you with the finest of the wheat .
15He sends out his commandment to the earth.
His word runs very swiftly .
16He gives snow like wool ,
and scatters frost like ashes.
17He hurls down his hail like pebbles.
Who can stand before his cold ?
18He sends out his word , and melts them .
He causes his wind to blow , and the waters flow .
19He shows his word to Jacob ,
his statutes and his ordinances to Israel .
20He has not done this for just any nation .
They don’t know his ordinances .
Praise the LORD !
