(KJV) Psalm 1111

<< Psalm 110 Psalm 112 >>

⥃Majestic Is His Work

[1] Praise ye the Lord2. I will3 praise the Lord with [my] whole heart, in the assembly4 of the upright, and [in] the congregation.5 [2] The works6 of the Lord [are] great, sought7 out of all them that have8 pleasure therein. [3] His work [is] honourable9 and glorious: and his righteousness10 endureth for ever. [4] He hath11 made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord [is] gracious12 and full13 of compassion. [5] He hath given14 meat15 unto them that fear him: he will16 ever be mindful of his covenant. [6] He hath shewed17 his people the power of his works, that he18 may give them the heritage of the heathen. [7] The works19 of his hands [are] verity and judgment; all his20 commandments [are] sure. [8] They21 stand fast22 for ever and ever, [and are] done23 in truth and uprightness. [9] He sent24 redemption unto his people: he hath25 commanded his covenant for ever: holy26 and reverend [is] his name. [10] The fear27 of the Lord [is] the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding28 have all they that do [his commandments29]: his praise30 endureth for ever.
