Psalms 111

1 Praise ye Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.

Praise ye the Lord. I will prayse the Lord with my whole heart in the assemblie and Congregation of the iust.

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

The workes of the Lord are great, and ought to be sought out of al them that loue them.

3 Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing for ever.

His worke is beautifull and glorious, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

4 A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful [is] Jehovah.

He hath made his wonderfull workes to be had in remembrance: the Lord is mercifull and full of compassion.

5 Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to the age His covenant.

He hath giuen a portion vnto them that feare him: he wil euer be mindfull of his couenant.

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

He hath shewed to his people the power of his workes in giuing vnto them the heritage of the heathen.

7 The works of His hands [are] true and just, Stedfast [are] all His appointments.

The workes of his handes are trueth and iudgement: all his statutes are true.

8 They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.

They are stablished for euer and euer, and are done in trueth and equitie.

9 Redemption He hath sent to His people, He hath appointed to the age His covenant, Holy and fearful [is] His name.

He sent redemption vnto his people: he hath commanded his couenant for euer: holy and fearefull is his Name.

10 The beginning of wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for ever!

The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord: all they that obserue them, haue good vnderstanding: his praise endureth for euer.
