New Testament

Psalms 147:4-11 New English Translation (NET)

4. He counts the number of the stars;he names all of them.

5. Our Lord is great and has awesome power;there is no limit to his wisdom.

6. The Lord lifts up the oppressed,but knocks the wicked to the ground.

7. Offer to the Lord a song of thanks!Sing praises to our God to the accompaniment of a harp!

8. He covers the sky with clouds,provides the earth with rain,and causes grass to grow on the hillsides.

9. He gives food to the animals,and to the young ravens when they chirp.

10. He is not enamored with the strength of a horse,nor is he impressed by the warrior’s strong legs.

11. The Lord takes delight in his faithful followers,and in those who wait for his loyal love.
