Psalm 111:1-10
Praise the Lord for his great works, his deeds are glorious and majestic.
His righteousness endures forever.
Hi precepts are trustworthy, steadfast for ever and ever, he ordained(受戒) his covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is his name.
He provides food for those who fear him; He has shown his people the power of his works, giving them the lands of other nations.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, all who follow his precepts have good understanding.
Why?
Praise the Lord for He is worthy- his works are great, his deeds are glorious and majestic. His love, righteous, precepts and covenant endure forever.
Fear the Lord who doesn't lack the food.
Holy and awesome is his name so I have to be holy as He.
Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, just the beginning, follow his precepts is life long duty and joy.
We are temporary, kingdom of the Lord's are endure forever.
This psalm is identical in form with psalm 112. Both consist of 22 phrase each beginning with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet.
The palmist rejoices in God's greatness; his faithfulness and justice; hi integrity and trustworthiness; his provision and his redemption.
Respect for God is the true starting-point of all human wisdom.
How?
Consider the holy and awesome of the Lord, I should respect(fear) and follow his precepts with all my heart, my mind and strength.
