147:4He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
147:5Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
147:6The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
147:7Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp to our God:

147:9He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
147:10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

147:14He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
147:15He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
147:16He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
147:17He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
147:18He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
147:19He showeth his word to Jacob, his statutes and his judgments to Israel.
147:20He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
