Psalm 147

Hallelujah!

It is good to sing psalms to our Elohim.
    It is pleasant to sing his praise beautifully.

Yahweh is the builder of Jerusalem.
    He is the one who gathers the outcasts of Israel together.
He is the Rophe of the brokenhearted.
    He is the one who bandages their wounds.
He determines the number of stars.
    He gives each one a name.
Our Adonay is great, and his power is great.
    There is no limit to his understanding.
Yahweh gives relief to those who are oppressed.
    He brings wicked people down to the ground.

Sing to Yahweh a song of thanksgiving.
    Make music to our Elohim with a lyre.
He covers the sky with clouds.
    He provides rain for the ground.
    He makes grass grow on the mountains.
He is the one who gives food to animals
    and to young ravens when they call out.
10 He finds no joy in strong horses,
    nor is he pleased by brave soldiers.
11 Yahweh is pleased with those who fear him,
    with those who wait with hope for his mercy.
