诗篇 147
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
称颂 神复兴耶路撒冷之恩
147 你们要赞美耶和华。
歌颂我们的 神，这是多么美善，
赞美他，这是美好的，是合宜的。
2 耶和华重建耶路撒冷，
召聚被赶散的以色列人。
3 他医好伤心的人，
裹好他们的伤处。
4 他数点星辰的数目，
一一给它们起名。
5 我们的主伟大，大有能力；
他的智慧无法测度。
6 耶和华扶持谦卑的人，
却把恶人丢弃在地。
7 你们要以感谢的心向耶和华歌唱，
用琴向我们的 神歌颂。
8 他以密云遮盖天空，
为大地预备雨水，
使群山长满青草。
9 他把食物赐给走兽，
也赐给啼叫的小乌鸦。
10 他喜欢的不是马的力大，
他喜悦的不是人的腿快。
11 耶和华喜悦敬畏他的人，
喜悦仰望他慈爱的人。
12 耶路撒冷啊！你要颂赞耶和华；
锡安哪！你要赞美你的 神。
13 因为他坚固了你城门的门闩，
赐福在你中间的儿女。
14 他使你的边界平靖；
用上好的麦子使你饱足。
15 他向地发出命令，
他的话迅速颁行。
16 他降下像羊毛一样的雪，
撒下像炉灰一样的霜。
17 他拋下像碎屑一样的冰雹；
面对他发出的寒冷，谁能承受得起呢？
18 他发出命令，这一切就都融化；
他使风刮起，水就流动。
19 他把自己的话向雅各颁布，
把自己的律例和典章向以色列颁布。
20 他从没有这样对待其他各国；
他们都不知道他的典章。
你们要赞美耶和华。
Psalm 147
Common English Bible
Psalm 147
147 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.
12 Worship the Lord, Jerusalem!
Praise your God, Zion!
13 Because God secures the bars on your gates,
God blesses the children you have there.
14 God establishes your borders peacefully.
God fills you full with the very best wheat.
15 God issues his command to the earth—
God’s word speeds off fast!
16 God spreads snow like it was wool;
God scatters frost like it was ashes;
17 God throws his hail down like crumbs—
who can endure God’s freezing cold?
18 Then God issues his word and melts it all away!
God makes his winds blow;
the water flows again.
19 God proclaims his word to Jacob;
his statutes and rules to Israel.
20 God hasn’t done that with any other nation;
those nations have no knowledge of God’s rules.[a]
Praise the Lord!

Psalm 147
New King James Version
Praise to God for His Word and Providence
147 Praise[a] the Lord!
For (A)it is good to sing praises to our God;
(B)For it is pleasant, and (C)praise is beautiful.
2 The Lord (D)builds up Jerusalem;
(E)He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.
3 (F)He heals the brokenhearted
And binds up their [b]wounds.
4 (G)He counts the number of the stars;
He calls them all by name.
5 (H)Great is our Lord, and (I)mighty in power;
(J)His understanding is infinite.
6 (K)The Lord lifts up the humble;
He casts the wicked down to the ground.
7 Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;
Sing praises on the harp to our God,
8 (L)Who covers the heavens with clouds,
Who prepares rain for the earth,
Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.
9 (M)He gives to the beast its food,
And (N)to the young ravens that cry.
10 (O)He does not delight in the strength of the horse;
He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him,
In those who hope in His mercy.
12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem!
Praise your God, O Zion!
13 For He has strengthened the bars of your gates;
He has blessed your children within you.
14 (P)He makes peace in your borders,
And (Q)fills you with [c]the finest wheat.
15 (R)He sends out His command to the earth;
His word runs very swiftly.
16 (S)He gives snow like wool;
He scatters the frost like ashes;
17 He casts out His hail like [d]morsels;
Who can stand before His cold?
18 (T)He sends out His word and melts them;
He causes His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 (U)He declares His word to Jacob,
(V)His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
20 (W)He has not dealt thus with any nation;
And as for His judgments, they have not known them.
[e]Praise the Lord!
