< Psalms 111 >

1 Praise ye the Lord. I will prayse the Lord with my whole heart in the assemblie and Congregation of the iust.
Alleluia. I will confess to you, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the just and in the congregation.
2 The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.
Great are the works of the Lord, exquisite in all his intentions.
3 His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.
Confession and magnificence are his work. And his justice remains from age to age.
4 He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.
He has created a memorial to his wonders; he is a merciful and compassionate Lord.
5 He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.
He has given food to those who fear him. He will be mindful of his covenant in every age.
6 He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.
He will announce the virtue of his works to his people,
7 The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.
so that he may give them the inheritance of the nations. The works of his hands are truth and judgment.
8 They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.
All his commands are faithful: confirmed from age to age, created in truth and fairness.
9 He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull is his Name.
He has sent redemption upon his people. He has commanded his covenant for all eternity. Holy and terrible is his name.
10 The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
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.
