Hallelujah

By Sarah Beth Lindberg

Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) I will praise and give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart in the council of the upright and in the congregation.

2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out by all those who have delight in them.

3 His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness endures forever.

4 He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious, merciful, andfull of loving compassion.

5 He has given food andprovision to those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him; He will remember His covenant forever andimprint it [on His mind].

6 He has declared and shown to His people the power of His works in giving them the heritage of the nations [of Canaan].

7 The works of His hands are [absolute] truth and justice [faithful and right]; and all His decrees and precepts are sure (fixed, established, and trustworthy).

8 They stand fast and are established forever and ever and are done in [absolute] truth and uprightness.

9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has commanded His covenant to be forever; holy is His name, inspiring awe, reverence, andgodly fear.

10 The reverent fear andworship of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom andskill [the preceding and the first essential, the prerequisite and the alphabet]; a good understanding, wisdom, andmeaning have all those who do [the will of the Lord]. Their praise of Him endures forever.

~Psalm 111 (AMP)
