Berean Standard Bible

Psalms 147:12-20

12Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion!13For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you.14He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.

15He sends forth His command to the earth;His word runs swiftly.16He spreads the snow like wool;He scatters the frost like ashes;17He casts forth His hail like pebbles.1Who can withstand His icy blast?18He sends forth His word and melts them;He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow.

19He declares His word to Jacob,His statutes and judgments to Israel.20He has done this for no other nation;they do not know His judgments.2

Hallelujah!
