Great Are the Lord's Works

1 t Praise the Lord!
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the company of the upright, in the congregation.
2  Great are the works of the Lord,
studied by all who delight in them.
3  Full of splendor and majesty is his work,
and his righteousness endures forever.
4  He has caused his wondrous works to be remembered;
the Lord is gracious and merciful.
5  He provides food for those who fear him;
he remembers his covenant forever.
6  He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the inheritance of the nations.
7  The works of his hands are faithful and just;
all his precepts are trustworthy;
8  they are established forever and ever,
to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.
9  He sent redemption to his people;
he has commanded his covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is his name!
10  The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!

7 The works of his hands are truth and justice; All his precepts are sure.

8 They are established for ever and ever; They are done in truth and uprightness.

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

10 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do his commandments: His praise endureth for ever.
