Psalms 111

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Alleluia. Of the return of Haggai and Zachariah. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord. He will prefer his commandments exceedingly.	1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 His offspring will be powerful on the earth. The generation of the upright will be blessed.	2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3 Glory and wealth will be in his house, and his justice shall remain from age to age.	3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 For the upright, a light has risen up in the darkness. He is merciful and compassionate and just.	4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5 Pleasing is the man who shows mercy and lends. He will order his words with judgment.	5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
6 For he will not be disturbed in eternity.	6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7 The just one will be an everlasting memorial. He will not fear a report of disasters. His heart is prepared to hope in the Lord.	7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8 His heart has been confirmed. He will not be disturbed, until he looks down upon his enemies.	8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He has distributed, he has given to the poor. His justice shall remain from age to age. His horn shall be exalted in glory.	9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10 The sinner will see and become angry. He will gnash his teeth and waste away. The desire of sinners will perish.	10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
