Psalms 147:5-14

⁵Great is our Lord, and abundant in power: his understanding is immeasurable.

⁶The Lord helpeth up the meek: he bringeth down the wicked to the ground.

⁷Lift up a song unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praises unto our God with the harp;

⁸Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who causeth grass to grow upon the mountains;

⁹Who giveth to the beast its food, to the young ravens which cry.

¹⁰Not in the strength of the horse hath he delight: nor in the swiftness of the legs of man taketh he pleasure.

¹¹The Lord taketh pleasure in those that fear him, that wait for his kindness.

¹²Glorify, O Jerusalem, the Lord: praise thy God, O Zion.

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

¹⁴He who bestoweth peace in thy borders, who satisfieth thee with the best of wheat;
