Psalms 111

1 Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

Alleluja. [Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, in consilio justorum, et congregatione.

2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.

Magna opera Domini: exquisita in omnes voluntates ejus.

3 His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honor: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.

Confessio et magnificentia opus ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.

4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.

Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, misericors et miserator Dominus.

5 He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.

Escam dedit timentibus se; memor erit in sæculum testamenti sui.

6 He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.

Virtutem operum suorum annuntiabit populo suo,

7 The works of his hands are truth and judgment: all his commandments are sure:

ut det illis hæreditatem gentium. Opera manuum ejus veritas et judicium.

8 established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

Fidelia omnia mandata ejus, confirmata in sæculum sæculi, facta in veritate et æquitate.

9 He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.

Redemptionem misit populo suo; mandavit in æternum testamentum suum. Sanctum et terribile nomen ejus.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.

Initium sapientiæ timor Domini; intellectus bonus omnibus facientibus eum: laudatio ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.]
