Psalms

Chapter 111

Majestic Is His Work

1 Hallelujah! [a]

I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart

in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

2 Great are the works of the LORD;

they are pondered by all who delight in them.

3 Splendid and majestic is His work;

His righteousness endures forever.

4 He has caused His wonders to be remembered;

the LORD is gracious and compassionate.

5 He provides food for those who fear Him;

He remembers His covenant forever.

6 He has shown His people the power of His works

by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

7 The works of His hands are truth and justice;

all His precepts are trustworthy.

8 They are upheld forever and ever,

enacted in truth and uprightness.

9 He has sent redemption to His people;

He has ordained His covenant forever;

holy and awesome is His name.

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;

all who follow His precepts gain rich understanding.

His praise endures forever!
