Psalms 147:12

Psa 147:12 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

Ver. 12. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem ] Whatever the world doth, let not the Church defraud God of his due praises; "though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend," Hosea 4:15 . God’s blessings go round about graceless and ungrateful people; and they are no more moved than the earth that hath the circumference carried about it, and itself standeth still; but the saints must be of another alloy, Colossians 3:15 , and there is good reason for it.
