The Beginning of Wisdom

Psalm 111

Halleluyah! I praise Adonai with all my heart
in the company and congregation of the upright.
Great are the works of Adonai
searched out by all who delight in them.
Glorious and majestic is His work,
and His righteousness endures forever.
He made His wonders memorable.
Adonai is gracious and full of compassion.
He gives food to those who fear Him.
He remembers His covenant forever.
He shows His people His powerful deeds,
giving them the heritage of the nations.
The works of His hands are truth and justice.
All His precepts are trustworthy—
they are upheld forever and ever,
made in truth and uprightness.
He has sent redemption to His people.
He has ordained His covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is His Name.
10 The fear of Adonai is the beginning of wisdom.
All who follow His precepts have good understanding.
His praise endures forever!
