Psalms 111

1 Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

Aleluya. ALABARÉ á Jehová con todo el corazón, en la compañía y congregación de los rectos.

2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.

Grandes son las obras de Jehová; buscadas de todos los que las quieren.

3 His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honour: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.

Gloria y hermosura es su obra; y su justicia permanece para siempre.

4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.

Hizo memorables sus maravillas: clemente y misericordioso es Jehová.

5 He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.

Dió mantenimiento á los que le temen; para siempre se acordará de su pacto.

6 He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.

El poder de sus obras anunció á su pueblo, dándole la heredad de las gentes.

7 The works of his hands are truth and judgement: all his commandments are sure:

Las obras de sus manos son verdad y juicio: fieles son todos sus mandamientos;

8 established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

Afirmados por siglo de siglo, hechos en verdad y en rectitud.

9 He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.

Redención ha enviado á su pueblo; para siempre ha ordenado su pacto: santo y terrible es su nombre.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.

El principio de la sabiduría es el temor de Jehová: buen entendimiento tienen cuantos ponen aquéllos por obra: su loor permanece para siempre.
