Psalm 111 Acrostic Paraphrase

Psalm 111-English Acrostic

(Written by NHF attendees August 18, 2019)

Hallelujah!

All of my heart gives thanks to the Lord,

Before and between the company of the upright and in the assembly.

CONSIDERABLE are the works of the Lord;

Delightful are they which leads to studying them.

Each of His works are splendid and majestic;

Forever His righteousness endures.

God made His wonders to be remembered;

He is gracious and compassionate.

In response to their fear of Him, He has provided for them;

Jesus will remember His covenant forever.

Known to His people, He has made the power of His works,

Leaving them the heritage of the nations.

My God’s works are truth and justice;

None of His precepts are unsure.

On and on they are upheld forever.

Performed are they in truth and uprightness;

Quittance He has sent to His people.

Really, He has ordained His covenant forever!

Sanctified and awesome is His name;

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

Untainted understanding have all those who do His commandments.

Verily I say to you, His praise endures forever.

Psalm 112 Acrostic paraphrase by the Body of NH

Psalm 112-English Acrostic (Written by NHF attendees August 25, 2019) Hallelujah! A man who fears the Lord is blessed, But this man greatly delights in His commandments. Children of his will be mighty on earth; Deemed blessed in the generation of the upright. Extreme wealth and riches are in his house, Forever his righteousness endures. Guiding light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous. It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; Just in judgement He will maintain his cause. Kept unshaken he will always be; Likewise, the righteous will be remembered forever. Messages of evil, he will not fear; Naturally, trusting in the Lord, His heart is steadfast. Oh, his heart is upheld, he will not fear, Persevering until he looks with satisfaction on his adversaries. Quite willing He has given to the poor, Righteousness of this man endures forever; Sovereignly, His horn will be exalted in honor. The wicked will see it and be vexed, Ultimately, gnashing his teeth and melting away; Villainous desire will perish.
