Psalms 147:11 - Psalms 148:0

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?

18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them; he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

19 He showeth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

20 He hath not dealt so with any nation; and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.
