| Chapter 111 |
1 |
Hallelujah! I will celebrate Jehovah with [my] whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the assembly.
|
2 |
Great are the works of Jehovah; sought out of all that delight in them.
|
3 |
His work is majesty and splendour, and his righteousness abideth for ever.
|
4 |
He hath made his wonders to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful.
|
5 |
He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he is ever mindful of his covenant.
|
6 |
He hath shewn his people the power of his works, to give them the heritage of the nations.
|
7 |
The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his precepts are faithful:
|
8 |
Maintained for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.
|
9 |
He sent deliverance unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and terrible is his name.
|
10 |
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do [his precepts]: his praise abideth for ever.
