Psalms 147
1 Hallelujah; for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant, and praise is comely.
| הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ ׀ כִּי־טֹ֖וב זַמְּרָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־נָ֝עִים נָאוָ֥ה תְהִלָּֽה׃ |
2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem, He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel;
| בֹּונֵ֣ה יְרוּשָׁלַ֣͏ִם יְהוָ֑ה נִדְחֵ֖י יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל יְכַנֵּֽס׃ |
3 Who healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
| הָ֭רֹפֵא לִשְׁב֣וּרֵי לֵ֑ב וּ֝מְחַבֵּ֗שׁ לְעַצְּבֹותָֽם׃ |
4 He counteth the number of the stars; He giveth them all their names.
| מֹונֶ֣ה מִ֭סְפָּר לַכֹּוכָבִ֑ים לְ֝כֻלָּ֗ם שֵׁמֹ֥ות יִקְרָֽא׃ |
5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
| גָּדֹ֣ול אֲדֹונֵ֣ינוּ וְרַב־כֹּ֑חַ לִ֝תְבוּנָתֹ֗ו אֵ֣ין מִסְפָּֽר׃ |
6 The LORD upholdeth the humble; He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.
| מְעֹודֵ֣ד עֲנָוִ֣ים יְהוָ֑ה מַשְׁפִּ֖יל רְשָׁעִ֣ים עֲדֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃ |
7 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving, sing praises upon the harp unto our God;
| עֱנ֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה בְּתֹודָ֑ה זַמְּר֖וּ לֵאלֹהֵ֣ינוּ בְכִנֹּֽור׃ |
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh the mountains to spring with grass.
| הַֽמְכַסֶּ֬ה שָׁמַ֨יִם ׀ בְּעָבִ֗ים הַמֵּכִ֣ין לָאָ֣רֶץ מָטָ֑ר הַמַּצְמִ֖יחַ הָרִ֣ים חָצִֽיר׃ |
9 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
| נֹותֵ֣ן לִבְהֵמָ֣ה לַחְמָ֑הּ לִבְנֵ֥י עֹ֝רֵ֗ב אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִקְרָֽאוּ׃ |
10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse; He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.
| לֹ֤א בִגְבוּרַ֣ת הַסּ֣וּס יֶחְפָּ֑ץ לֹֽא־בְשֹׁוקֵ֖י הָאִ֣ישׁ יִרְצֶֽה׃ |
11 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that wait for His mercy.
| רֹוצֶ֣ה יְ֭הוָה אֶת־יְרֵאָ֑יו אֶת־הַֽמְיַחֲלִ֥ים לְחַסְדֹּֽו׃ |
12 Glorify the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
| שַׁבְּחִ֣י יְ֭רוּשָׁלַ͏ִם אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה הַֽלְלִ֖י אֱלֹהַ֣יִךְ צִיֹּֽון׃ |
13 For He hath made strong the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.
| כִּֽי־חִ֭זַּק בְּרִיחֵ֣י שְׁעָרָ֑יִךְ בֵּרַ֖ךְ בָּנַ֣יִךְ בְּקִרְבֵּֽךְ׃ |
14 He maketh thy borders peace; He giveth thee in plenty the fat of wheat.
| הַשָּׂם־גְּבוּלֵ֥ךְ שָׁלֹ֑ום חֵ֥לֶב חִ֝טִּ֗ים יַשְׂבִּיעֵֽךְ׃ |
15 He sendeth out His commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
| הַשֹּׁלֵ֣חַ אִמְרָתֹ֣ו אָ֑רֶץ עַד־מְ֝הֵרָ֗ה יָר֥וּץ דְּבָרֹֽו׃ |
16 He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
| הַנֹּתֵ֣ן שֶׁ֣לֶג כַּצָּ֑מֶר כְּ֝פֹ֗ור כָּאֵ֥פֶר יְפַזֵּֽר׃ |
17 He casteth forth His ice like crumbs; who can stand before His cold?
| מַשְׁלִ֣יךְ קַֽרְחֹ֣ו כְפִתִּ֑ים לִפְנֵ֥י קָ֝רָתֹ֗ו מִ֣י יַעֲמֹֽד׃ |
18 He sendeth forth His word, and melteth them; He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
| יִשְׁלַ֣ח דְּבָרֹ֣ו וְיַמְסֵ֑ם יַשֵּׁ֥ב ר֝וּחֹ֗ו יִזְּלוּ־מָֽיִם׃ |
19 He declareth His word unto Jacob, His statutes and His ordinances unto Israel.
| מַגִּ֣יד דְּבָרֹו (דְּבָרָ֣יו) לְיַעֲקֹ֑ב חֻקָּ֥יו וּ֝מִשְׁפָּטָ֗יו לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ |
20 He hath not dealt so with any nation; and as for His ordinances, they have not known them. Hallelujah.
| לֹ֘א עָ֤שָׂה כֵ֨ן ׀ לְכָל־גֹּ֗וי וּמִשְׁפָּטִ֥ים בַּל־יְדָע֗וּם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ |
