< Psalms 111 >
1 Hallelujah. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
Alleluia. Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo: in consilio iustorum, et congregatione.
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have delight therein.
Magna opera Domini: exquisita in omnes voluntates eius.
3 His work is glory and majesty; and His righteousness endureth for ever.
Confessio et magnificentia opus eius: et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi.
4 He hath made a memorial for His wonderful works; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, misericors et miserator Dominus:
5 He hath given food unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.
escam dedit timentibus se. Memor erit in saeculum testamenti sui:
6 He hath declared to His people the power of His works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.
virtutem operum suorum annunciabit populo suo:
7 The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are sure.
Ut det illis hereditatem gentium: opera manuum eius veritas, et iudicium.
8 They are established for ever and ever, they are done in truth and uprightness.
Fidelia omnia mandata eius: confirmata in saeculum saeculi, facta in veritate et aequitate.
9 He hath sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; Holy and awful is His name.
Redemptionem misit populo suo: mandavit in aeternum testamentum suum. Sanctum, et terribile nomen eius:
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; His praise endureth for ever.
initium sapientiae timor Domini. Intellectus bonus omnibus facientibus eum: laudatio eius manet in saeculum saeculi.
