111 Aleluya. ALABARÉ á Jehová con todo el corazón, En la compañía y congregación de los rectos.

Grandes son las obras de Jehová; Buscadas de todos los que las quieren.

Gloria y hermosura es su obra; Y su justicia permanece para siempre.

Hizo memorables sus maravillas: Clemente y misericordioso es Jehová.

Dió mantenimiento á los que le temen; Para siempre se acordará de su pacto.

El poder de sus obras anunció á su pueblo, Dándole la heredad de las gentes.

Las obras de sus manos son verdad y juicio: Fieles son todos sus mandamientos;

Afirmados por siglo de siglo, Hechos en verdad y en rectitud.

Redención ha enviado á su pueblo; Para siempre ha ordenado su pacto: Santo y terrible es su nombre.

10 El principio de la sabiduría es el temor de Jehová: Buen entendimiento tienen cuantos ponen aquéllos por obra: Su loor permanece para siempre.

Psalm 111[a]

Praise the Lord.[b]

I will extol the Lord(A) with all my heart(B)
    in the council(C) of the upright and in the assembly.(D)

Great are the works(E) of the Lord;
    they are pondered by all(F) who delight in them.
Glorious and majestic are his deeds,
    and his righteousness endures(G) forever.
He has caused his wonders to be remembered;
    the Lord is gracious and compassionate.(H)
He provides food(I) for those who fear him;(J)
    he remembers his covenant(K) forever.

He has shown his people the power of his works,(L)
    giving them the lands of other nations.(M)
The works of his hands(N) are faithful and just;
    all his precepts are trustworthy.(O)
They are established for ever(P) and ever,
    enacted in faithfulness and uprightness.
He provided redemption(Q) for his people;
    he ordained his covenant forever—
    holy and awesome(R) is his name.

10 The fear of the Lord(S) is the beginning of wisdom;(T)
    all who follow his precepts have good understanding.(U)
    To him belongs eternal praise.(V)
