Psalms

111

¹Praise ye the Lord . I will praise the Lord with my whole heart,

In the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

²The works of the Lord are great,

Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

³His work is honourable and glorious:

And his righteousness endureth for ever.

⁴He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered:

The Lord is gracious and full of compassion.

⁵He hath given meat unto them that fear him:

He will ever be mindful of his covenant.

⁶He hath shewed his people the power of his works,

That he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

⁷The works of his hands are verity and judgment;

All his commandments are sure.

⁸They stand fast for ever and ever,

And are done in truth and uprightness.

⁹He sent redemption unto his people:

He hath commanded his covenant for ever:

Holy and reverend is his name.

¹⁰The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom:

A good understanding have all they that do his commandments:

His praise endureth for ever.
