Psalm 147:16 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 147.

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

13 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.

16 He spreads the snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes;

17 He casts forth His hail like pebbles. Who can withstand His icy blast?

18 He sends forth His word and melts them; He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow.

19 He declares His word to Jacob, His statutes and judgments to Israel.

20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know His judgments. Hallelujah!
