Psalms 147:2-9

²Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.

³Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.

⁴Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.

⁵Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.

⁶He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?

⁷He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.

⁸Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.

⁹He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
