Psalms 147:11-19

¹¹The Lord takes pleasure in his worshippers, and in those whose hope is in his mercy.

¹²Give praise to the Lord, O Jerusalem; give praise to your God, O Zion.

¹³He has made strong the iron bands of your doors; he has sent blessings on your children inside your walls.

¹⁴He gives peace in all your land, making your stores full of fat grain.

¹⁵He sends out his orders to the earth; his word goes out quickly.

¹⁶He gives snow like wool; he sends out ice-drops like dust.

¹⁷He sends down ice like raindrops: water is made hard by his cold.

¹⁸At the outgoing of his word, the ice is turned to water; when he sends out his wind, there is a flowing of waters.

¹⁹He makes his word clear to Jacob, teaching Israel his laws and his decisions.
