Psalm 147:7-15

Complete Jewish Bible

⁷ Sing to Adonai with thanks,
sing praises on the lyre to our God.
⁸ He veils the sky with clouds;
he provides the earth with rain;
he makes grass grow on the hills;
⁹ he gives food to the animals,
even to the young ravens when they cry.

¹⁰ He takes no delight in the strength of a horse,
no pleasure in a runner’s speed.
¹¹ Adonai takes pleasure in those who fear him,
in those who wait for his grace.

¹² Glorify Adonai, Yerushalayim!
Praise your God, Tziyon!
¹³ For he strengthens the bars of your gates,
he blesses your children within you,
¹⁴ he brings peace within your borders,
he gives you your fill of the finest wheat.

¹⁵ He sends his word out over the earth,
his command runs swiftly.
