Psalms 147
1 Praise ye the Lord, for it is good to sing vnto our God: for it is a pleasant thing, and praise is comely.
Praise YAH! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant—lovely [is] praise.
2 The Lord doth builde vp Ierusalem, and gather together the dispersed of Israel.
YHWH [is] building Jerusalem, He gathers the driven away of Israel.
3 He healeth those that are broken in heart, and bindeth vp their sores.
Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.
4 He counteth the nomber of the starres, and calleth them all by their names.
Appointing the number of the stars, He gives names to all of them.
5 Great is our Lord, and great is his power: his wisdome is infinite.
Our Lord [is] great, and abundant in power, There is no narration of His understanding.
6 The Lord relieueth the meeke, and abaseth the wicked to the ground.
YHWH is causing the meek to stand, Making the wicked low to the earth.
7 Sing vnto the Lord with prayse: sing vpon the harpe vnto our God,
Answer to YHWH with thanksgiving, Sing to our God with a harp.
8 Which couereth the heauen with cloudes, and prepareth raine for the earth, and maketh the grasse to growe vpon the mountaines:
Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing rain for the earth, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,
9 Which giueth to beasts their foode, and to the yong rauens that crie.
Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.
10 He hath not pleasure in the strength of an horse, neither delighteth he in the legs of man.
He does not delight in the might of the horse, He is not pleased in the legs of a man.
11 But the Lord deliteth in them that feare him, and attende vpon his mercie.
YHWH is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.
12 Prayse the Lord, O Ierusalem: prayse thy God, O Zion.
Glorify, O Jerusalem, YHWH, Praise your God, O Zion.
13 For he hath made the barres of thy gates strong, and hath blessed thy children within thee.
For He strengthened the bars of your gates, He has blessed your sons in your midst.
14 He setteth peace in thy borders, and satisfieth thee with the floure of wheate.
Who is making your border peace, He satisfies you [with] the fat of wheat.
15 He sendeth foorth his commandement vpon earth, and his worde runneth very swiftly.
Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, His word runs very speedily.
16 He giueth snowe like wooll, and scattereth the hoare frost like ashes.
Who is giving snow like wool, He scatters hoarfrost as ashes.
17 He casteth foorth his yce like morsels: who can abide the colde thereof?
Casting forth His ice like morsels, Who stands before His cold?
18 He sendeth his worde and melteth them: he causeth his winde to blowe, and the waters flowe.
He sends forth His word and melts them, He causes His wind to blow—the waters flow.
19 He sheweth his word vnto Iaakob, his statutes and his iudgements vnto Israel.
Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
20 He hath not dealt so with euery nation, neither haue they knowen his iudgements. Prayse ye the Lord.
He has not done so to any nation, As for judgments, they have not known them. Praise YAH!
