¶ Praise the everlasting. 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 marvelous works, that they ought to be had in remembrance. He giveth meat unto them, that fear him, he is ever mindful of his covenant.
¶ He sheweth 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 stond 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 reverent is his name. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter: the praise of it endureth for ever.
