1 Hallelujah. I will thank the Lord with all my heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation. 2 Great are the works of the Lord, they are sought for by them in all their desires. 3 Glorious and majestic is his doing, and his righteousness endureth for ever. 4 He hath made a memorial for his wonderful works: gracious and merciful is the Lord. 5 He hath given sustenance unto those that fear him: he will for ever be mindful of his covenant. 6 The power of his works hath he told unto his people, that he might give them the heritage of nations. 7 The works of his hands are truth and justice: faultless are all his precepts. 8 They are well supported for ever and eternally: they are framed in truth and uprightness. 9 Redemption hath he sent unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and to be feared is his name. 10 The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord; a good understanding have all that fulfill his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
