Psalms 111

1 Praise ye the LORD! I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, In the assembly of the righteous, and in the congregation.

Hallelujah. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

2 The works of the LORD are great, Sought out by all who have pleasure in them.

The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have delight therein.

3 His deeds are honorable and glorious, And his righteousness endureth for ever.

His work is glory and majesty; and His righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath established a memorial of his wonders; The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

He hath made a memorial for His wonderful works; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

5 He giveth meat to them that fear him; He is ever mindful of his covenant.

He hath given food unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.

6 He showed his people the greatness of his works, When he gave them the inheritance of the heathen.

He hath declared to His people the power of His works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 The deeds of his hands are truth and justice; All his commandments are sure;

The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are sure.

8 They stand firm for ever and ever, Being founded in truth and justice.

They are established for ever and ever, they are done in truth and uprightness.

9 He sent redemption to his people; He established his covenant for ever; Holy, and to be had in reverence, is his name.

He hath sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; Holy and awful is His name.

10 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.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; His praise endureth for ever.
