Psalms 147 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

Lauda Jerusalem

1. Alleluia.Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.

1Alleluia.

2. Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.

3. Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.

4. Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.

5. Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.

6. He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?

7. He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.

8. Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.

9. He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
