Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah! I will celebrate Jehovah with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the assembly. 2 Great are the works of Jehovah; sought out of all that delight in them. 3 His work is majesty and splendour, and his righteousness abideth for ever. 4 He hath made his wonders to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful. 5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he is ever mindful of his covenant.

6 He hath shewn his people the power of his works, to give them the heritage of the nations. 7 The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his precepts are faithful: 8 Maintained for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness. 9 He sent deliverance unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and terrible is his name. 10 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do his precepts: his praise abideth for ever.

1 Praise ye Jehovah.

I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart,

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

2 The works of Jehovah are great,

Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 His work is honor and majesty;

And his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered:

Jehovah is gracious and merciful.

5 He hath given food unto them that fear him:

He will ever be mindful of his covenant.

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

In giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 The works of his hands are truth and justice;

All his precepts are sure.

8 They are established for ever and ever;

They are done in truth and uprightness.

9 He hath sent redemption unto his people;

He hath commanded his covenant for ever:

Holy and reverend is his name.

10 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom;

A good understanding have all they that do his commandments:

His praise endureth for ever.
