Psalm 147 [MT 147:12-20]
[Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aegis and Zacharias.] Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Sion.
᾿Αλληλούϊα· ᾿Αγγαίου καὶ Ζαχαρίου. - ΕΠΑΙΝΕΙ, ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, τὸν Κύριον, αἴνει τὸν Θεόν σου, Σιών,
For he has strengthened the bars of thy gates; he has blessed thy children within thee.
ὅτι ἐνίσχυσε τοὺς μοχλοὺς τῶν πυλῶν σου, εὐλόγησε τοὺς υἱούς σου ἐν σοί·
He makes thy borders peaceful, and fills thee with the flour of wheat.
ὁ τιθεὶς τὰ ὅριά σου εἰρήνην καὶ στέαρ πυροῦ ἐμπιπλῶν σε·
He sends his oracle to the earth: his word will run swiftly.
ὁ ἀποστέλλων τὸ λόγιον αὐτοῦ τῇ γῇ, ἕως τάχους δραμεῖται ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ·
He gives snow like wool: he scatters the mist like ashes.
διδόντος χιόνα αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ ἔριον, ὁμίχλην ὡσεὶ σποδὸν πάσσοντος·
Casting [forth] his ice like morsels: who shall stand before his cold?
βάλλοντος κρύσταλλον αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ ψωμούς, κατὰ πρόσωπον ψύχους αὐτοῦ τίς ὑποστήσεται;
He shall send out his word, and melt them: he shall blow [with] his wind, and the waters shall flow.
ἐξαποστελεῖ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ καὶ τήξει αὐτά· πνεύσει τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ῥυήσεται ὕδατα.
He sends his word to Jacob, his ordinances and judgments to Israel.
ὁ ἀπαγγέλλων τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τῷ ᾿Ιακώβ, δικαιώματα καὶ κρίματα αὐτοῦ τῷ ᾿Ισραήλ.
He has not done so to any [other] nation; and he has not shewn them his judgments.
οὐκ ἐποίησεν οὕτως παντὶ ἔθνει καὶ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐδήλωσεν αὐτοῖς.
