< Psalms 111 >
1 Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.
Praise ye the Lord. I will prayse the Lord with my whole heart in the assemblie and Congregation of the iust.
2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.
The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.
3 His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honor: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.
His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.
4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.
He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.
5 He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.
He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.
6 He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.
He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.
7 The works of his hands are truth and judgment: all his commandments are sure:
The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.
8 established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.
They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.
9 He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.
He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull is his Name.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.
The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
