Psalms 111

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
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 Al eluia! I give thanks to Yahweh with al my heart, in the meeting-place of honest people, in theassembly.
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.	2 Great are the deeds of Yahweh, to be pondered by al who delight in them.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.	3 Ful of splendour and majesty his work, his saving justice stands firm for ever.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.	4 He gives us a memorial of his great deeds; Yahweh is mercy and tenderness.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.	5 He gives food to those who fear him, he keeps his covenant ever in mind.
6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.	6 His works show his people his power in giving them the birthright of the nations.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.	7 The works of his hands are fidelity and justice, al his precepts are trustworthy,
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.	8 established for ever and ever, accomplished in fidelity and honesty.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.	9 Deliverance he sends to his people, his covenant he imposes for ever; holy and awesome his 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 root of wisdom is fear of Yahweh; those who attain it are wise. His praise wil continue for ever.
