Psalms 147:1-10 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises unto our God;for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.

2. The Lord builds up Jerusalem;He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.

3. He heals the broken in heart,and binds up their wounds.

4. He counts the number of the stars;He calls them all by their names.

5. Great is our Lord and great in power;His understanding is without measure.

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 provides rain for the earth,who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.

9. He gives food to the animalsand to the young ravens that chirp.

10. He delights not in the strength of the horse,nor does He take pleasure in the legs of a man,
