Psalms 111:7-10

7The works of His hands are truth and [absolute] justice; All His precepts are sure (established, reliable, trustworthy).

8They are upheld forever and ever; They are done in [absolute] truth and uprightness.

9He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; Holy and awesome is His name—[inspiring reverence and godly fear].

10The [reverent] fear of the Lord is the beginning (the prerequisite, the absolute essential, the alphabet) of wisdom; A good understanding and a teachable heart are possessed by all those who do the will of the Lord; His praise endures forever.
