Psalms 111
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Hallelujah. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
1Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.
2The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have delight therein.
2His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
3His work is glory and majesty; and His righteousness endureth for ever.
3Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.
4He hath made a memorial for His wonderful works; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
4To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.
5He hath given food unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.
5Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:
6He hath declared to His people the power of His works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.
6Because he shall not be moved for ever.
7The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are sure.
7The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:
8They are established for ever and ever, they are done in truth and uprightness.
8His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.
9He hath sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; Holy and awful is His name.
9He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; His praise endureth for ever.
10The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
