Psalms — Chapter 111

The Lord is gracious and full of compassion—Holy and reverend is His name—The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

1 Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the aassembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 The works of the Lordare great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3 His awork isbhonourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lordis 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 aheathen.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8 They astand 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 areverend is his name.
10 The fear of the Lordis the beginning of awisdom: a good bunderstanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
