Psalms 111

₁Shout praises to the LORD!

With all my heart

I will thank the LORD

when his people meet.

₂The LORD has done

many wonderful things!

Everyone who is pleased

with God's marvellous deeds

will keep them in mind.

₃Everything the LORD does

is glorious and majestic,

and his power to bring justice

will never end.

₄The LORD God is famous

for his wonderful deeds,

and he is kind and merciful.

₅He gives food to his worshippers

and always keeps his agreement

with them.

₆He has shown his mighty power

to his people

and has given them the lands

of other nations.

₇God is always honest and fair,

and his laws can be trusted.

₈They are true and right

and will stand for ever.

₉God rescued his people,

and he will never break

his agreement with them.

He is fearsome and holy.

₁₀Respect and obey the LORD!

This is the first step

to wisdom and good sense.

God will always be respected.
