Psalms 111

The Lord Praised for His Goodness.

11Praise 2the Lord! I 3will give thanks to the Lord with all my heart, In the 4company of the upright and in the assembly.25Great are the works of the Lord; They are 67studied by all who delight in them.389Splendid and majestic is His work, And 10His righteousness endures forever.4He has caused His 11wonders 12to be remembered; The Lord is 13gracious and compassionate.5He has 14given 15food to those who 16fear Him; He will 17remember His covenant forever.6He has made known to His people the power of His works, In giving them the inheritance of the nations.

7The works of His hands are 1819truth and justice; All His precepts 20are trustworthy.8They are 21upheld forever and ever; They are performed in 2223truth and uprightness.9He has sent 24redemption to His people; He has 25ordained His covenant forever; 26Holy and 27awesome is His name.10The 2829fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; All those who 30follow 31His commandments have a good understanding; His 32praise endures forever.
