< Psalms 111 >
1 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; in the council of the just: and in the congregation.
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: sought out according to all his wills.
The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.
3 His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.
His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.
4 He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:
He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.
5 He hath given food to them that fear him. He will be mindful for ever of his covenant:
He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.
6 He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.
He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.
7 That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.
The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.
8 All his commandments are faithful: confirmed for ever and ever, made in truth and equity.
They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.
9 He hath sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever. Holy and terrible 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. A good understanding to all that do it: his praise continueth for ever and ever.
The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
