Psalms 111

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.	1 Hallelujah. I will praise the LORD with all my heart in the assembled congregation of the upright.
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.	2 Great are the works of the LORD, to be treasured for all their delights.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.	3 Majestic and glorious is your work, your wise design endures forever.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.	4 You won renown for your wondrous deeds; gracious and merciful is the LORD.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.	5 You gave food to those who fear you, mindful of your covenant forever.
6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.	6 You showed powerful deeds to your people, giving them the lands of the nations.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.	7 The works of your hands are right and true, reliable all your decrees,
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.	8 Established forever and ever, to be observed with loyalty and care.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.	9 You sent deliverance to your people, ratified your covenant forever; holy and awesome is your name.
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.	10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; prudent are all who live by it. Your praise endures forever.
