Psalms 111

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

הללו-יה אודה יהוה בכל-לבב בסוד ישרים ועדה

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

גדלים מעשי יהוה דרושים לכל-חפציהם

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

הוד-והדר פעלו וצדקתו עמדת לעד

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

זכר עשה לנפלאותיו חנון ורחום יהוה

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

טרף נתן ליראיו יזכר לעולם בריתו

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

כח מעשיו הגיד לעמו-- לתת להם נחלת גוים

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

מעשי ידיו אמת ומשפט נאמנים כל-פקודיו

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

סמוכים לעד לעולם עשוים באמת וישר

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

פדות שלח לעמו-- צוה-לעולם בריתו קדוש ונורא שמו

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

ראשית חכמה יראת יהוה-- שכל טוב לכל-עשיהם תהלתו עמדת לעד
