Psalms 147:6-15 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

6. The LORD lifts up the meek: he casts the wicked down to the ground.

7. Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

8. Who covers the heaven with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.

9. He gives to the beast its food, and to the young ravens that cry.

10. He delights not in the strength of the horse: he takes not pleasure in the legs of a man.

11. The LORD takes pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

12. Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion.

13. For he has strengthened the bars of your gates; he has blessed your children within you.

14. He makes peace in your borders, and fills you with the finest of the wheat.

15. He sends forth his commandment upon earth: his word runs very swiftly.
