Psalm 147:12-20

New American Standard Bible

¹² Praise the Lord, Jerusalem!
Praise your God, Zion!
¹³ For He has strengthened the ^(A)bars of your gates;
He has ^(B)blessed your sons among you.
¹⁴ He ^(C)makes ^[a]peace in your borders;
He ^(D)satisfies you with ^(E)the ^[b]finest of the wheat.
¹⁵ He sends His ^(F)command to the earth;
His ^(G)word runs very swiftly.
¹⁶ He ^[c]showers ^(H)snow like wool;
He scatters the ^(I)frost like ashes.
¹⁷ He hurls His ^(J)ice as fragments;
Who can stand before His ^(K)cold?
¹⁸ He ^(L)sends His word and makes them melt;
He ^(M)makes His wind blow, and the waters flow.
¹⁹ He ^(N)declares His words to Jacob,
His ^(O)statutes and His judgments to Israel.
²⁰ He ^(P)has not dealt this way with any other nation;
And as for His judgments, ^[d]they have ^(Q)not known them.
^[e]Praise ^[f]the Lord!
