Psalms 111

1 Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] I thank YHWH with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the congregation.

Praise ye Yah! I will give thanks unto Yahweh, with a whole heart, in the circle of the upright and the assembly.

2 Great [are] the works of YHWH, Sought out by all desiring them.

Great are the works of Yahweh, sought out, by all who find pleasure therein.

3 Splendid and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing forever.

Honourable and majestic, is his doing, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.

4 He has made a memorial of His wonders, YHWH [is] gracious and merciful.

A memorial, hath he made by his wonders, Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh.

5 He has given prey to those fearing Him, He remembers His covenant for all time.

Food, hath he given to them who revere him, He will remember, age-abidingly, his covenant.

6 He has declared the power of His works to His people, To give to them the inheritance of nations.

The might of his works, hath he declared to his people, that he may give them the inheritance of the nations.

7 The works of His hands [are] true and just, All His appointments [are] steadfast.

The works of his hands, are faithful and just, Firm are all his precepts;

8 They are sustained forever and for all time. They are made in truth and uprightness.

Upheld to futurity, to times age-abiding, done in faithfulness and equity.

9 He has sent redemption to His people, He has appointed His covenant for all time, His Name [is] holy and fearful.

Ransom, hath he sent to his people, He hath commanded, to times age-abiding, his covenant, Holy and reverend, is his Name.

10 The fear of YHWH [is] the beginning of wisdom, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing forever!

The beginning of wisdom, is the reverence of Yahweh, Good discretion, have all that do them, His praise, endureth for aye.
