Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

Praise ye the Lord. I will prayse the Lord with my whole heart in the assemblie and Congregation of the iust.

2 Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.

3 Splendid and majestic is His work; His righteousness endures forever.

His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

4 He has caused His wonders to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and compassionate.

He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.

5 He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever.

He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.

6 He has shown His people the power of His works by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.

7 The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are trustworthy.

The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.

8 They are upheld forever and ever, enacted in truth and uprightness.

They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.

9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; holy and awesome is His name.

He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull is his Name.

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow His precepts gain rich understanding. His praise endures forever!

The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
