< 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 Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.
2 Great are the works of the Lord, they are sought for [by them] in all their desires.
Great [are] the works of Jehovah, Sought out by all desiring them.
3 Glorious and majestic is his doing, and his righteousness endureth for ever.
Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing for ever.
4 He hath made a memorial for his wonderful works: gracious and merciful is the Lord.
A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful [is] Jehovah.
5 He hath given sustenance unto those that fear him: he will for ever be mindful of his covenant.
Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to the age His covenant.
6 The power of his works hath he told unto his people, that he might give them the heritage of nations.
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 truth and justice: faultless are all his precepts.
The works of His hands [are] true and just, Stedfast [are] all His appointments.
8 They are well supported for ever and eternally: they are framed in truth and uprightness.
They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.
9 Redemption hath he sent unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and to be feared 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 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 wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for ever!
