< Psalms 111 >
1 Praise the LORD. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
Alleluia. Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo: in consilio iustorum, et congregatione.
2 The LORD's works are great, pondered by all those who delight in them.

6 He has shown his people the power of his works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.
virtutem operum suorum annunciabit populo suo:
7 The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts are sure.
Ut det illis hereditatem gentium: opera manuum eius veritas, et iudicium.
