Psalm 111

Confitebor tibi

I WILL give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, secretly among the faithful, and in the congregation. The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. His work is worthy to be praised and had in honour, and his righteousness endureth for ever. The merciful and gracious LORD hath so done his marvellous works, that they ought to be had in remem-brance. He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he shall ever be mindful of his covenant. He hath showed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen. The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are true. They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and equity. He sent redemption unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever; holy and reverend is his Name. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; his praise endureth for ever.

Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart,
in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that
have pleasure therein.

His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness
endureth for ever.

He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is
gracious and full of compassion.

He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be
mindful of his covenant.

He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may
give them the heritage of the heathen.

The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his
commandments are sure.

They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and
uprightness.

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his
covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

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.
