Psalm 147:1-11

¹ Praise the LORD! Because it is good to sing praise to our God! Because it is a pleasure to make beautiful praise! ² The LORD rebuilds Jerusalem, gathering up Israel’s exiles. ³ God heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. ⁴ God counts the stars by number, giving each one a name. ⁵ Our Lord is great and so strong! God’s knowledge can’t be grasped! ⁶ The LORD helps the poor, but throws the wicked down on the dirt! ⁷ Sing to the LORD with thanks; sing praises to our God with a lyre! ⁸ God covers the skies with clouds; God makes rain for the earth; God makes the mountains sprout green grass. ⁹ God gives food to the animals even to the baby ravens when they cry out. ¹⁰ God doesn’t prize the strength of a horse; God doesn’t treasure the legs of a runner. ¹¹ No. The LORD treasures the people who honor him, the people who wait for his faithful love.
