Psalm 147:12-20
12 Extol the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion! 13 For he makes the bars of your gates strong. He blesses your children within you. 14 He brings peace to your territory. He abundantly provides for you the best grain. 15 He sends his command through the earth; swiftly his order reaches its destination. 16 He sends the snow that is white like wool; he spreads the frost that is white like ashes. 17 He throws his hailstones like crumbs. Who can withstand the cold wind he sends? 18 He then orders it all to melt; he breathes on it, and the water flows. 19 He proclaims his word to Jacob, his statutes and regulations to Israel. 20 He has not done so with any other nation; they are not aware of his regulations. Praise the Lord! NET Deuteronomy 4:1, 5-9 1 "And now, O Israel, listen to the precepts and judgments which I am teaching to you, so that, by doing these, you may live, and you may enter and possess the land, which the Lord, the God of your fathers, will give to you. 5 You know that I have taught you precepts as well as justices, just as the Lord my God has commanded me. And so shall you do in the land that you will possess. 6 And you shall observe and fulfill these in practice. For this is your wisdom and understanding in the sight of the peoples, so that, upon hearing all these precepts, they may say: 'Lo, a wise and understanding people, a great nation.' 7 Neither is there any other nation so great, which has its gods so near to them, as our God is present to all our petitions.
