Psalms 147:10-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 147
10He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He does not take pleasure in the legs of a man. 11The Lord favors those who fear Him, Those who wait for His faithfulness. 12Praise the Lord, Jerusalem! Praise your God, Zion! 13For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your sons among you. 14He makes peace in your borders; He satisfies you with the finest of the wheat. 15He sends His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly. 16He showers snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes. 17He hurls His ice as fragments; Who can stand before His cold?King James Version
Chapter 147
10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man. 11The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
12Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
13For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.
14He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
15He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
16He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
17He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

Chapter 147
10He is not impressed by the strength of a horse; he does not value the power of a warrior.New Living Translation
Chapter 147
10He takes no pleasure in the strength of a horse or in human might. 11No, the Lord’s delight is in those who fear him, those who put their hope in his unfailing love.
12Glorify the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!
13For he has strengthened the bars of your gates and blessed your children within your walls.
14He sends peace across your nation and satisfies your hunger with the finest wheat.
15He sends his orders to the world — how swiftly his word flies!
16He sends the snow like white wool; he scatters frost upon the ground like ashes.
17He hurls the hail like stones. Who can stand against his freezing cold?

Praise your God, O Zion! 13For he strengthens the bars of your gates; he blesses your children within you. 14He makes peace in your borders; he fills you with the finest of the wheat. 15He sends out his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly. 16He gives snow like wool; he scatters frost like ashes. 17He hurls down his crystals of ice like crumbs; who can stand before his cold?New International Version
