Psalms 147:13

11 The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.

12 Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion!

For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you.

14 He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.

15 He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs swiftly.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
