Psalms 111
|
Praise ye Jehovah. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart, In the council of the upright, and in the congregation. | Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people. |
The works of Jehovah are great, Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. | The works of the Lord are great, searched out by all those who have delight in them. |
His work is honor and majesty; And his righteousness endureth for ever. | His work is full of honour and glory; and his righteousness is unchanging for ever. |
He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful. | Certain for ever is the memory of his wonders: the Lord is full of pity and mercy. |
He hath given food unto them that fear him: He will ever be mindful of his covenant. | He has given food to his worshippers; he will keep his agreement in mind for ever. |
He hath showed his people the power of his works, In giving them the heritage of the nations. | He has made clear to his people the power of his works, giving them the heritage of the nations. |
The works of his hands are truth and justice; All his precepts are sure. | The works of his hands are faith and righteousness; all his laws are unchanging. |
They are established for ever and ever; They are done in truth and uprightness. | They are fixed for ever and ever, they are done in faith and righteousness. |
He hath sent redemption unto his people; He hath commanded his covenant for ever: Holy and reverend is his name. | He has sent salvation to his people; he has given his word for ever: holy is his name and greatly to be feared. |
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do [his commandments]: His praise endureth for ever. Psalm 112 | The fear of the Lord is the best part of wisdom: all those who keep his laws are wise: his praise is eternal. |
