Psalm 111

I will give thanks unto the Lord with my whole heart  *

secretly among the faithful, and in the congregation.

The works of the Lord are great *

sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

His work is worthy to be praised and had in honour *

and his righteousness endureth for ever.

The merciful and gracious Lord hath so done his marvellous works *

that they ought to be had in remembrance.

He hath given meat unto them that fear him *

he shall ever be mindful of his covenant.

He hath shewed his people the power of his works *

that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

The works of his hands are verity and judgement *

all his commandments are true.

They stand fast for ever and ever *

and are done in truth and equity.

He sent redemption unto his people *

he hath commanded his covenant for ever; holy and reverend is his Name.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom *

a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; the praise of it endureth for ever.
