Psalms 111

1 Praise ye the Lord. I will prayse the Lord with my whole heart in the assemblie and Congregation of the iust.

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

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 Jehovah, Sought out by all desiring them.

3 His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

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

4 He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.

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

5 He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.

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

6 He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.

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

7 The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.

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

8 They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.

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

9 He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull 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 beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.

The beginning of wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for ever!
