Psalm 111

¹Praise ye the LORD. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, in the council 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 honour and majesty: 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, in giving them the heritage of the nations.

⁷The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his precepts are sure.

⁸They are established for ever and ever, they are done in truth and uprightness.

⁹He hath 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 thereafter: his praise endureth for ever.

¹Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

²His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

³Wealth and riches are in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

⁴Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

⁵Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; he shall maintain his cause in judgment.

⁶For he shall never be moved; the righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

⁷He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

⁸His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his adversaries.

⁹He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; his righteousness endureth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

¹⁰The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

¹Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

²Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

³From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised.

⁴The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

⁵Who is like unto the LORD our God, that hath his seat on high,

⁶That humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven and in the earth?

⁷He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy from the dunghill;

⁸That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

⁹He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.
