Verse 2 of 20. The 147th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

1Praise the LORD, for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and fitting to praise him.

2The LORD builds up Jerusalem. He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.

3He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.

4He counts the number of the stars. He calls them all by their names.

5Great is our Lord, and mighty in power. His understanding is infinite.

6The LORD upholds the humble. He brings the wicked down to the ground.
