Chapter — Douay-Rheims
Psalms 147
12.
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.
13.
Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.
14.
Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.
15.
Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.
16.
Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.
17.
He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?
18.
He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.
19.
Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.
20.
He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
