< Psalms 111 >
1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in 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 The works of the LORD are great, sought out by all them that have pleasure in them.
Great are the works of Yahweh, sought out, by all who find pleasure therein.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
Honourable and majestic, is his doing, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
A memorial, hath he made by his wonders, Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh.
5 He hath given food to them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
Food, hath he given to them who revere him, He will remember, age-abidingly, his covenant.
6 He hath shown his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
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 verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
The works of his hands, are faithful and just, Firm are all his precepts;
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
Upheld to futurity, to times age-abiding, done in faithfulness and equity.
9 He sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
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 the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
The beginning of wisdom, is the reverence of Yahweh, Good discretion, have all that do them, His praise, endureth for aye.
