Psalms - Chapter 147

Passage

Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise your God, O Sion. Because he has strengthened the bolts of your gates, he has blessed your children within you. Who has placed peace in your borders: and fills you with the fat of corn. Who sends forth his speech to the earth: his word runs swiftly. Who gives snow like wool: scatters mists like ashes. He sends his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold? He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run. Who declares his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel. He has not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he has not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
