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 Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.

2 Great are the works of the Lord: sought out according to all his wills.

Great [are] the works of Jehovah, Sought out by all desiring them.

3 His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.

Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing for ever.

4 He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:

A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful [is] Jehovah.

5 He hath given food to them that fear him. He will be mindful for ever of his covenant:

Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to the age His covenant.

6 He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.

The power of His works He hath declared to His people, To give to them the inheritance of nations.

7 That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.

The works of His hands [are] true and just, Stedfast [are] all His appointments.

8 All his commandments are faithful: confirmed for ever and ever, made in truth and equity.

They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.

9 He hath sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever. Holy and terrible is his name:

Redemption He hath sent to His people, He hath appointed to the age His covenant, Holy and fearful [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 wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for ever!
