Psalm 147:16-18

Contemporary English Version

¹⁶ He covers the ground with snow
    like a blanket of wool,
and he scatters frost
    like ashes on the ground.
¹⁷ God sends down hailstones
like chips of rocks.
    Who can stand the cold?
¹⁸ At his command the ice melts,
the wind blows,
    and streams begin to flow.
