147 Praise ye Jah! for it is good. Sing psalms of our God; for it is pleasant: praise is comely.

Jehovah doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth the outcasts of Israel.

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

He counteth the number of the stars; he giveth names to them all.

Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

Jehovah lifteth up the meek; he abaseth the wicked to the earth.

Sing unto Jehovah with thanksgiving; sing psalms upon the harp unto our God:

Who covereth the heavens with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains;

Who giveth to the cattle their food, to the young ravens which cry.

10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse, he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man;

11 Jehovah taketh pleasure in those that fear him, in those that hope in his loving-kindness.

12 Laud Jehovah, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee;

14 He maketh peace in thy borders; he satisfieth thee with the finest of the wheat.

15 He sendeth forth his oracles to the earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

16 He giveth snow like wool, scattereth the hoar frost like ashes;

17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

18 He sendeth his word, and melteth them; he causeth his wind to blow—the waters flow.

19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

20 He hath not dealt thus with any nation; and as for [his] judgments, they have not known them. Hallelujah!

148 Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights.

Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts.

Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.

Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.

Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:

And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass.

Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;

Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;

10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;

12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths,—

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.

14 And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah!
