Psalm 147:1-11

Praise the Lord!

How good it is to sing praises to our God,

    for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting.

The Lord builds up Jerusalem;

    he gathers the outcasts of Israel.

He heals the brokenhearted

    and binds up their wounds.

He determines the number of the stars;

    he gives to all of them their names.

Great is our Lord and abundant in power;

    his understanding is beyond measure.

The Lord lifts up the downtrodden;

He covers the heavens with clouds,

    prepares rain for the earth,

    makes grass grow on the hills.

He gives to the animals their food

    and to the young ravens when they cry.

His delight is not in the strength of the horse

    nor his pleasure in the speed of a runner,

but the Lord takes pleasure in those who honor him,

    in those who hope in his steadfast love.
