Psalm 147:7-9
The Voice

Psalm 147 is a postexilic hymn of praise to God as Creator and Sustainer. It celebrates the rebuilding of the walls and gates that protect Jerusalem. God secures the city, grants peace to the border towns, and controls the elements.

7 Open your mouths with thanks!
    Sing praises to the Eternal!
    Strum the harp in unending praise to our God
8 Who blankets the heavens with clouds,
    sends rain to water the thirsty earth,
    and pulls up each blade of grass upon the mountainside.
9 He opens His hands to feed all the animals
    and scatters seed to nestlings when they cry.
