Tehillim 147
Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 147
'"`UNIQ--named-00000000-QINU`"'1 Hallelujah; for it is good to sing praises unto our G-d; for it is pleasant, and praise is comely.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000001-QINU`"'2 HaShem doth build up Jerusalem, He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel;
'"`UNIQ--named-00000002-QINU`"'3 Who healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000003-QINU`"'4 He counteth the number of the stars; He giveth them all their names.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000004-QINU`"'5 Great is our L-rd, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000005-QINU`"'6 HaShem upholdeth the humble; He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000006-QINU`"'7 Sing unto HaShem with thanksgiving, sing praises upon the harp unto our G-d;
'"`UNIQ--named-00000007-QINU`"'8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh the mountains to spring with grass.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000008-QINU`"'9 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000009-QINU`"'10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse; He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000A-QINU`"'11 HaShem taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that wait for His mercy.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000B-QINU`"'12 Glorify HaShem, O Jerusalem; praise thy G-d, O Zion.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000C-QINU`"'13 For He hath made strong the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000D-QINU`"'14 He maketh thy borders peace; He giveth thee in plenty the fat of wheat.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000E-QINU`"'15 He sendeth out His commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
'"`UNIQ--named-0000000F-QINU`"'16 He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000010-QINU`"'17 He casteth forth His ice like crumbs; who can stand before His cold?
'"`UNIQ--named-00000011-QINU`"'18 He sendeth forth His word, and melteth them; He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000012-QINU`"'19 He declareth His word unto Jacob, His statutes and His ordinances unto Israel.
'"`UNIQ--named-00000013-QINU`"'20 He hath not dealt so with any nation; and as for His ordinances, they have not known them. Hallelujah.
