New Century Version

Psalms 147:13-20 New Century Version (NCV)

13. He makes your city gates strongand blesses your children inside.

14. He brings peace to your countryand fills you with the finest grain.

15. He gives a command to the earth,and it quickly obeys him.

16. He spreads the snow like wooland scatters the frost like ashes.

17. He throws down hail like rocks.No one can stand the cold he sends.

18. Then he gives a command, and it melts.He sends the breezes, and the waters flow.

19. He gave his word to Jacob,his laws and demands to Israel.

20. He didn’t do this for any other nation.They don’t know his laws.Praise the Lord!
