< Psalms 111 >
1 Praise all of you the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, 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 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
Great [are] the works of Jehovah, Sought out by all desiring them.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endures for ever.
Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing for ever.
4 He has made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful [is] Jehovah.
5 He has given food unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to the age His covenant.
6 He has showed his people the power of his works, that he may give 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 works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
The works of His hands [are] true and just, Stedfast [are] all His appointments.
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he has commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend 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 have all they that do his commandments: his praise endures for ever.
The beginning of wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for ever!
