1Alleluia. Lord, I shall acknowledge to thee in all mine heart; in the council, and congregation of just men. (Alleluia. Lord, I shall praise thee with all my heart, in the gathering together of the upright; yea, in the congregation.)

2The works of the Lord be great; sought out into all his wills. (The works of the Lord be great; sought out by all who take delight in them.)

3His work is acknowledging and great doing; and his rightfulness dwelleth into the world of world. (His works be full of honour and majesty; and his righteousness remaineth forever and ever.)

4The Lord, merciful in will, and a merciful doer, hath made a mind of his marvels; (The Lord, merciful in will, and a giver of mercy, is remembered for his marvellous deeds;)

5he hath given meat to men dreading him. He shall be mindful of his testament into the world; (he hath given food to those who fear him or to those who revere him. He shall always be mindful, or shall always remember, his covenant;)

6he shall tell to his people the strength of his works. That he give to them the heritage of folks; (he hath shown his people his strength in his works. Yea, he hath given them the inheritance of the nations;)

7the works of his hands be truth and doom (or the works of his hands be truth and justice). All his commandments be faithful,

8confirmed into the world of world; made in truth and equity. (confirmed forever, and made in truth and goodness.)

9The Lord sent redemption to his people; he commanded his testament [into] without end. His name is holy and dreadful; (The Lord sent and redeemed his people; he commanded that his covenant should endure forever. His name is holy and fearful or His name is holy and worthy to be praised;)

10the beginning of wisdom is the dread of the Lord. Good understanding is to all that do it; his praising dwelleth into the world of world. (the beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord or the beginning of wisdom is to revere the Lord. All who obey his commandments grow in wisdom; praise shall be his forever.)
