Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah. I will thank the Lord with all [my] 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 Great are the works of the Lord, they are sought for [by them] in all their desires.

The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.

3 Glorious and majestic is his doing, and his righteousness endureth for ever.

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

4 He hath made a memorial for his wonderful works: gracious and merciful is the Lord.

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

5 He hath given sustenance unto those that fear him: he will for ever be mindful of his covenant.

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

6 The power of his works hath he told unto his people, that he might give them the heritage of nations.

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 justice: faultless are all his precepts.

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

8 They are well supported for ever and eternally: they are framed in truth and uprightness.

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

9 Redemption hath he sent unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and to be feared is his name.

He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull is his Name.

10 The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord; a good understanding have all that fulfill [his commandments]: his praise endureth for ever.

The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
