Psalms 147:7 - Psalms 147:17
7 Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God;
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 He giveth to the beast his food, and 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 The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
12 Praise the Lord, 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, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
15 He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth; his word runneth very swiftly.
16 He giveth snow like wool; he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels; who can stand before his cold?
