詩
147:1-14
1 你們要讚美耶和華!
因歌頌我們的 神為善為美;
讚美的話是合宜的。 2
耶和華建造耶路撒冷,
聚集以色列中被趕散的人。 3
他醫好傷心的人, 裹好他們的傷處。
4 他數點星宿的數目,
一一稱它的名。 5 我們的主為大,
最有能力; 他的智慧無法測
度。 6 耶和華扶持謙卑人,
將惡人傾覆於地。 7
你們要以感謝向耶和華歌唱,
用琴向我們的 神歌頌。 8
他用雲遮天, 為地降雨,
使草生長在山上。 9
他賜食給走獸和啼叫的小烏鴉。
10 他不喜悅馬的力大,
不喜愛人的腿快。 11
耶和華喜愛敬畏他和盼望他慈愛的人。
12 耶路撒冷啊,
你要頌讚耶和華! 錫安哪,
你要讚美你的 神! 13
因為他堅固了你的門閂,
賜福給你中間的兒女。 14
他使你境內平安,
用上好的麥子使你滿足。
Psalm 147:1-14
1 Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing
praises to our God; For it is pleasant, and praise is beautiful. 2
The Lord builds up Jerusalem; He gathers together the outcasts of
Israel. 3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. 4 He
counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name. 5 Great is
our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite. 6 The
Lord lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked down to the ground. 7
Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; Sing praises on the harp to our
God, 8 who covers the heavens with clouds, who prepares rain for the
earth, who makes grass to grow on the mountains. 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.
