Psalms 111

1 Praise Yah. I will praise Yhwh with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

2 The works of Yhwh are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

Splendid and majestic is His work; His righteousness endures forever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: Yhwh is gracious and full of compassion.

He has caused His wonders to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and compassionate.

5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever.

6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

He has shown His people the power of His works by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are trustworthy.

8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

They are upheld forever and ever, enacted in truth and uprightness.

9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; holy and awesome is His name.

10 The fear of Yhwh is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow His precepts gain rich understanding. His praise endures forever!
