New King James Version

Psalms 147:9-18 New King James Version (NKJV)

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

10. He does not delight in the strength of the horse;He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.

11. The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him,In those who 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 wheat.

15. He sends out His command to the earth;His word runs very swiftly.

16. He gives snow like wool;He scatters the frost like ashes;

17. He casts out His hail like morsels;Who can stand before His cold?

18. He sends out His word and melts them;He causes His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
