111 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 by all them that have pleasure therein.

His work is honorable 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 shown 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.

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!

112 Praise ye the Lord! Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, that delighteth greatly in His commandments.

His seed shall be mighty upon the earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Wealth and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness endureth for ever.

Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious and full of compassion and righteous.

A good man showeth favor and lendeth; he will guide his affairs with discretion.

Surely he shall not be moved forever; the righteous shall be held in everlasting remembrance.

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.

His heart is established; he shall not be afraid until he sees his desires upon his enemies.

He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked shall see it and be grieved, he shall gnash with his teeth and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.

113 Praise ye the Lord! Praise, O ye servants of the Lord; praise the name of the Lord!

Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and for evermore.

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the Lord’S name is to be praised.

The Lord is high above all nations, and His glory above the heavens.

Who is like unto the Lord our God who dwelleth on high,

who humbleth Himself to behold the things that are in heaven and on the earth?

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill,

that He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people.

He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord!

114 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of a strange language,

Judah was His sanctuary, and Israel His dominion.

The sea saw it, and fled; Jordan was driven back.

The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.

What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? Thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?

Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye little hills, like lambs?

Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

who turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

115 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name give glory, for Thy mercy and for Thy truth’s sake.

Why should the heathen say, “Where now is their God?”

But our God is in the heavens; He hath done whatsoever He hath pleased.

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not.

They have ears, but they hear not; noses have they, but they smell not.

They have hands, but they handle not; feet have they, but they walk not; neither speak they through their throat.

They that make them are like unto them; so is everyone that trusteth in them.

O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: He is their help and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord: He is their help and their shield.

11 Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: He is their help and their shield.

12 The Lord hath been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He will bless them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

14 The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Ye are blessed by the Lord who made heaven and earth.

16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s; but the earth hath He given to the children of men.

17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither do any that go down into silence.

18 But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord!

116 I love the Lord, because He hath heard my voice and my supplications.

Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him as long as I live.

The sorrows of death encompassed me, and the pains of hell got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow.

Then I called upon the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I beseech Thee, deliver my soul!”

Gracious is the Lord and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.

The Lord preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He helped me.

Return unto thy rest, O my soul, for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee.

For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.

10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: “I was greatly afflicted.”

11 I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”

12 What shall I render unto the Lord for all His benefits toward me?

13 I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the Lord.

14 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now, in the presence of all His people.

15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.

16 O Lord, truly I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant and the son of Thine handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bonds.

17 I will offer to Thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the Lord.

18 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all His people,

19 in the courts of the Lord’s house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord!

117 O praise the Lord, all ye nations! Praise Him, all ye people!

For His merciful kindness is great toward us, and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever. Praise ye the Lord!

118 O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever!

Let Israel now say that His mercy endureth for ever.

Let the house of Aaron now say that His mercy endureth for ever.

Let them that fear the Lord now say that His mercy endureth for ever.

I called upon the Lord in distress; the Lord answered me, and set me in an ample place.

The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do unto me?

The Lord taketh my part among them that help me; therefore shall I see what I desire upon them that hate me.

It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.

It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.

10 All the nations compassed me about, but in the name of the Lord will I destroy them.

11 They compassed me about, yea, they compassed me about; but in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

12 They compassed me about like bees, they are quenched as the fire of thorns; for in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

13 Thou hast thrust sorely at me that I might fall, but the Lord helped me.

14 The Lord is my strength and song, and has become my salvation.

15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous; the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

16 The right hand of the Lord is exalted; the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

17 I shall not die, but live and declare the works of the Lord.

18 The Lord hath chastened me sorely, but He hath not given me over unto death.

19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go into them, and I will praise the Lord

20 this gate of the Lord, into which the righteous shall enter.

21 I will praise Thee, for Thou hast heard me and art become my salvation.

22 The stone which the builders refused has become the head stone of the corner.

23 This is the Lord’S doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.

24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

25 Save now, I beseech Thee, O Lord; O Lord, I beseech Thee, send now prosperity.

26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord! We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.

27 God is the Lord, who hath shown us light; bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.

28 Thou art my God, and I will praise Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.

29 O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endureth for ever!
