Psalmorum 111

1 Alleluia. Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo: in consilio iustorum, et congregatione.

Hallelujah! I will celebrate Jehovah with [my] whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the assembly.

2 Magna opera Domini: exquisita in omnes voluntates eius.

Great are the works of Jehovah; sought out of all that delight in them.

3 Confessio et magnificentia opus eius: et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi.

His work is majesty and splendour, and his righteousness abideth for ever.

4 Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, misericors et miserator Dominus:

He hath made his wonders to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful.

5 escam dedit timentibus se. Memor erit in saeculum testamenti sui:

He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he is ever mindful of his covenant.

6 virtutem operum suorum annunciabit populo suo:

He hath shewn his people the power of his works, to give them the heritage of the nations.

7 Ut det illis hereditatem gentium: opera manuum eius veritas, et iudicium.

The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his precepts are faithful:

8 Fidelia omnia mandata eius: confirmata in saeculum saeculi, facta in veritate et aequitate.

Maintained for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

9 Redemptionem misit populo suo: mandavit in aeternum testamentum suum. Sanctum, et terribile nomen eius:

He sent deliverance unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and terrible is his name.

10 initium sapientiae timor Domini. Intellectus bonus omnibus facientibus eum: laudatio eius manet in saeculum saeculi.

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do [his precepts]: his praise abideth for ever.
