< Psalms 111 >
1 Alleluia. I will confess to you, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the just and in the congregation.
Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] I thank YHWH with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the congregation.
2 Great are the works of the Lord, exquisite in all his intentions.
Great [are] the works of YHWH, Sought out by all desiring them.
3 Confession and magnificence are his work. And his justice remains from age to age.
Splendid and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing forever.
4 He has created a memorial to his wonders; he is a merciful and compassionate Lord.
He has made a memorial of His wonders, YHWH [is] gracious and merciful.
5 He has given food to those who fear him. He will be mindful of his covenant in every age.
He has given prey to those fearing Him, He remembers His covenant for all time.
6 He will announce the virtue of his works to his people,
He has declared the power of His works to His people, To give to them the inheritance of nations.
7 so that he may give them the inheritance of the nations. The works of his hands are truth and judgment.
The works of His hands [are] true and just, All His appointments [are] steadfast.
8 All his commands are faithful: confirmed from age to age, created in truth and fairness.
They are sustained forever and for all time. They are made in truth and uprightness.
9 He has sent redemption upon his people. He has commanded his covenant for all eternity. Holy and terrible is his name.
He has sent redemption to His people, He has appointed His covenant for all time, His Name [is] holy and fearful.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding is for all who do it. His praise remains from age to age.
The fear of YHWH [is] the beginning of wisdom, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing forever!
