Psalm 147:1-11
Psalm 147
Praise the Lord.
How good it is to sing praises to our God!
How pleasant and right it is to praise him!
The Lord builds up Jerusalem.
He gathers the scattered people of Israel.
He heals those who have broken hearts.
He takes care of their wounds.
He decides how many stars there should be.
He gives each one of them a name.
Great is our Lord. His power is mighty.
There is no limit to his understanding.
The Lord gives strength to those who aren’t proud.
But he throws evil people down to the ground.
Sing to the Lord and give him grateful praise.
Make music to our God on the harp.
He covers the sky with clouds.
He supplies the earth with rain.
He makes grass grow on the hills.
He provides food for the cattle.
He provides for the young ravens when they cry out.
He doesn’t take pleasure in the strength of horses.
He doesn’t take delight in the strong legs of warriors.
The Lord takes delight in those who have respect for him.
They put their hope in his faithful love.
