Psalms 147:1-6

1Praise Yah: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

2Yhwh doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

3He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.1

4He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

5Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.2

6Yhwh lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
