| Chapter 147 |
1 |
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion. --
|
13 |
Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee. --
|
14 |
Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn. --
|
15 |
Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly. --
|
16 |
Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes. --
|
17 |
He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold? --
|
18 |
He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run. --
|
19 |
Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel. --
|
20 |
He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia. --
