< Psalms 147 >

1 Praise ye Jah! for it is good. Sing psalms of our God; for it is pleasant: praise is comely.
你们要赞美耶和华! 因歌颂我们的 神为善为美; 赞美的话是合宜的。
2 Jehovah doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth the outcasts of Israel.
耶和华建造耶路撒冷, 聚集以色列中被赶散的人。
3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
他医好伤心的人, 裹好他们的伤处。
4 He counteth the number of the stars; he giveth names to them all.

5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
我们的主为大,最有能力; 他的智慧无法测度。
6 Jehovah lifteth up the meek; he abaseth the wicked to the earth.
耶和华扶持谦卑人, 将恶人倾覆于地。
7 Sing unto Jehovah with thanksgiving; sing psalms upon the harp unto our God:
你们要以感谢向耶和华歌唱, 用琴向我们的 神歌颂。
8 Who covereth the heavens with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains;
他用云遮天,为地降雨, 使草生长在山上。
9 Who giveth to the cattle their food, to the young ravens which cry.
他赐食给走兽 和啼叫的小乌鸦。
10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse, he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man;
他不喜悦马的力大, 不喜爱人的腿快。
11 Jehovah taketh pleasure in those that fear him, in those that hope in his loving-kindness.
耶和华喜爱敬畏他 和盼望他慈爱的人。
12 Laud Jehovah, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
耶路撒冷啊,你要颂赞耶和华! 锡安哪,你要赞美你的 神!
13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee;
因为他坚固了你的门闩, 赐福给你中间的儿女。
14 He maketh peace in thy borders; he satisfieth thee with the finest of the wheat.
他使你境内平安, 用上好的麦子使你满足。
15 He sendeth forth his oracles to the earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
他发命在地; 他的话颁行最快。
16 He giveth snow like wool, scattereth the hoar frost like ashes;
他降雪如羊毛, 撒霜如炉灰。
17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
他掷下冰雹如碎渣; 他发出寒冷,谁能当得起呢?
18 He sendeth his word, and melteth them; he causeth his wind to blow — the waters flow.
他一出令,这些就都消化; 他使风刮起,水便流动。
19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
他将他的道指示雅各, 将他的律例典章指示以色列。
20 He hath not dealt thus with any nation; and as for [his] judgments, they have not known them. Hallelujah!
别国他都没有这样待过; 至于他的典章,他们向来没有知道。 你们要赞美耶和华!
