1Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

1Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people.

1Praise ye Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.

2The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

2The works of the Lord are great, searched out by all those who have delight in them.

2Great <FI>are<Fi> the works of Jehovah, Sought out by all desiring them.

3His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

3His work is full of honour and glory; and his righteousness is unchanging for ever.

3Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing for ever.

4He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.

4Certain for ever is the memory of his wonders: the Lord is full of pity and mercy.

4A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah.

5He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

5He has given food to his worshippers; he will keep his agreement in mind for ever.

5Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to the age His covenant.

6He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

6He has made clear to his people the power of his works, giving them the heritage of the nations.

6The power of His works He hath declared to His people, To give to them the inheritance of nations.

7The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

7The works of his hands are faith and righteousness; all his laws are unchanging.

7The works of His hands <FI>are<Fi> true and just, Stedfast <FI>are<Fi> all His appointments.

8They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

8They are fixed for ever and ever, they are done in faith and righteousness.

8They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.

9He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

9He has sent salvation to his people; he has given his word for ever: holy is his name and greatly to be feared.

9Redemption He hath sent to His people, He hath appointed to the age His covenant, Holy and fearful <FI>is<Fi> His name.

10The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

10The fear of the Lord is the best part of wisdom: all those who keep his laws are wise: his praise is eternal.

10The beginning of wisdom <FI>is<Fi> fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise <FI>is<Fi> standing for ever!
