Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

2 Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

3 Splendid and majestic is His work; His righteousness endures forever.

4 He has caused His wonders to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and compassionate.

5 He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever.

6 He has shown His people the power of His works by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

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

8 They are upheld forever and ever, enacted in truth and uprightness.

9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; holy and awesome is His name.

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow His precepts gain rich understanding. His praise endures forever!

1 ¶ Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with [my] whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

2 The works of the LORD [are] great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 His work [is] honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD [is] gracious and full of compassion.

5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

6 ¶ He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

7 The works of his hands [are] verity and judgment; all his commandments [are] sure.

8 They stand fast for ever and ever, [and are] done in truth and uprightness.

9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: 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.

2 Great are the works of the LORD: he that regardeth them taketh pleasure in them.

3 That which he hath ordained is praiseworthy and glorious; and his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath instituted a memorial of his wonders, the gracious and merciful LORD.

5 He giveth food unto them that fear him: he remembereth his covenant for ever.

6 He shall declare his mighty works unto his people, that he may give them the inheritance of the heathen.

7 The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his commandments are righteous.

8 They shall be preserved for ever and ever, and shall be done faithfully and honestly.

9 He sendeth a salvation unto his people: he hath promised that his covenant shall endure for ever. Holy and holy is his name.

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: it is a subtle prudence: the praise of him that doeth it endureth for ever.
