< 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 praise the LORD with my whole heart, In the assembly of the righteous, and in the congregation.
2 Great are the works of the Lord, they are sought for [by them] in all their desires.
The works of the LORD are great, Sought out by all who have pleasure in them.
3 Glorious and majestic is his doing, and his righteousness endureth for ever.
His deeds are honorable and glorious, And his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 He hath made a memorial for his wonderful works: gracious and merciful is the Lord.
He hath established a memorial of his wonders; The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5 He hath given sustenance unto those that fear him: he will for ever be mindful of his covenant.
He giveth meat to them that fear him; He is ever mindful of his covenant.
6 The power of his works hath he told unto his people, that he might give them the heritage of nations.
He showed his people the greatness of his works, When he gave them the inheritance of the heathen.
7 The works of his hands are truth and justice: faultless are all his precepts.
The deeds of his hands are truth and justice; All his commandments are sure;
8 They are well supported for ever and eternally: they are framed in truth and uprightness.
They stand firm for ever and ever, Being founded in truth and justice.
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 to his people; He established his covenant for ever; Holy, and to be had in reverence, 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 fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they who keep his commandments; His praise endureth for ever.
