Psa 111:3 Splendid and majestic is His work, And His righteousness endures forever. Psa 111:4 He has made His wonders to be remembered; The Lord is gracious and compassionate. Psa 111:5 He has given food to those who fear Him; He will remember His covenant forever. Psa 111:6 He has made known to His people the power of His works, In giving them the heritage of the nations. Psa 111:7 The works of His hands are truth and justice; All His precepts are sure. Psa 111:8 They are upheld forever and ever; They are performed in truth and uprightness. Psa 111:9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; Holy and awesome is His name. Psa 111:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments; His praise endures forever. -------- Psa 112:1 Praise the Lord! How blessed is the man who fears the Lord, Who greatly delights in His commandments. Psa 112:2 His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. Psa 112:3 Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever. Psa 112:4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.

Praise, O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord. Psa 113:2 Blessed be the name of the Lord From this time forth and forever. Psa 113:3 From the rising of the sun to its setting The name of the Lord is to be praised. Psa 113:4 The Lord is high above all nations; His glory is above the heavens. Psa 113:5 Who is like the Lord our God, Who is enthroned on high, Psa 113:6 Who humbles Himself to behold The things that are in heaven and in the earth? Psa 113:7 He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the needy from the ash heap, Psa 113:8 To make them sit with princes, With the princes of His people. Psa 113:9 He makes the barren woman abide in the house As a joyful mother of children. Praise the Lord! -------- Psa 114:1 When Israel went forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language, Psa 114:2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel, His dominion. Psa 114:3 The sea looked and fled; The Jordan turned back. Psa 114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, The hills, like lambs. Psa 114:5 What ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back? Psa 114:6 O mountains, that you skip like rams? O hills, like lambs? Psa 114:7 Tremble, O earth, before the Lord, Before the God of Jacob, Psa 114:8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of water. -------- Psa 115:1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, But to Your name give glory Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth. Psa 115:2 Why should the nations say, "Where, now, is their God?" Psa 115:3 But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases. Psa 115:4 Their idols are silver and gold, The work of man's hands. Psa 115:5 They have mouths, but they cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see; Psa 115:6 They have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell; Psa 115:7 They have hands, but they cannot feel; They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat. Psa 115:8 Those who make them will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them. Psa 115:9 O Israel, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. Psa 115:10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. Psa 115:11 You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. Psa 115:12 The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron. Psa 115:13 He will bless those who fear the Lord, The small together with the great. Psa 115:14 May the Lord give you increase, You and your children. Psa 115:15 May you be blessed of the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth. Psa 115:16 The heavens are the heavens of the Lord, But the earth He has given to the sons of men. Psa 115:17 The dead do not praise the Lord, Nor do any who go down into silence; Psa 115:18 But as for us, we will bless the Lord From this time forth and forever. Praise the Lord! -------- Psa 116:1 I love the Lord, because He hears My voice and my supplications. Psa 116:2 Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live. Psa 116:3 The cords of death encompassed me And the terrors of Sheol came upon me; I found distress and sorrow. Psa 116:4 Then I called upon the name of the Lord: "O Lord, I beseech You, save my life!" Psa 116:5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; Yes, our God is compassionate. Psa 116:6 The Lord preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me. Psa 116:7 Return to your rest, O my soul, For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. Psa 116:8 For You have rescued my soul from death, My eyes from tears, My feet from stumbling. Psa 116:9 I shall walk before the Lord In the land of the living. Psa 116:10 I believed when I said, "I am greatly afflicted." Psa 116:11 I said in my alarm, "All men are liars." Psa 116:12 What shall I render to the Lord For all His benefits toward me? Psa 116:13 I shall lift up the cup of salvation And call upon the name of the Lord. Psa 116:14 I shall pay my vows to the Lord, Oh may it be in the presence of all His people. Psa 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His godly ones. Psa 116:16 O Lord, surely I am Your servant, I am Your servant, the son of Your handmaid, You have loosed my bonds. Psa 116:17 To You I shall offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving, And call upon the name of the Lord. Psa 116:18 I shall pay my vows to the Lord, Oh may it be in the presence of all His people, Psa 116:19 In the courts of the Lord's house, In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the Lord! -------- Psa 117:1 Praise the Lord, all nations; Laud Him, all peoples! Psa 117:2 For His lovingkindness is great toward us, And the truth of the Lord is everlasting. Praise the Lord! -------- Psa 118:1 Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting. Psa 118:2 Oh let Israel say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting." Psa 118:3 Oh let the house of Aaron say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting." Psa 118:4 Oh let those who fear the Lord say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting." Psa 118:5 From my distress I called upon the Lord; The Lord answered me and set me in a large place. Psa 118:6 The Lord is for me; I will not fear; What can man do to me? Psa 118:7 The Lord is for me among those who help me; Therefore I will look with satisfaction on those who hate me. Psa 118:8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in man. Psa 118:9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in princes. Psa 118:10 All nations surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. Psa 118:11 They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. Psa 118:12 They surrounded me like bees; They were extinguished as a fire of thorns; In the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. Psa 118:13 You pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the Lord helped me. Psa 118:14 The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation. Psa 118:15 The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly. Psa 118:16 The right hand of the Lord is exalted; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly. Psa 118:17 I will not die, but live, And tell of the works of the Lord. Psa 118:18 The Lord has disciplined me severely, But He has not given me over to death. Psa 118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I shall enter through them, I shall give thanks to the Lord. Psa 118:20 This is the gate of the Lord; The righteous will enter through it. Psa 118:21 I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation. Psa 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner stone. Psa 118:23 This is the Lord's doing; It is marvelous in our eyes. Psa 118:24 This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psa 118:25 O Lord, do save, we beseech You; O Lord, we beseech You, do send prosperity! Psa 118:26 Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord; We have blessed you from the house of the Lord. Psa 118:27 The Lord is God, and He has given us light; Bind the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar. Psa 118:28 You are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God, I extol You. Psa 118:29 Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.
