« | Psalm 111 | » |
1 Praise ye the LORD! I will praise the LORD with my whole heart in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation.
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out by all them that have pleasure therein.
3 His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness endureth for ever.
4 He hath made His wonderful works to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.
6 He hath shown His people the power of His works, that He may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7 The works of His hands are verity and judgment; all His commandments are sure.
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; holy and reverend is His name.
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do His commandments. His praise endureth for ever!
About: The 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
The 21st Century King James Version (KJ21) is an updated version of the King James Version Bible published in 1994 that remains aligned to the Textus Receptus, and does not exclude biblical passages based on Alexandrian Greek manuscripts. Unlike the New King James Version, it does not change the language significantly from the 1611 King James Version, keeping Jacobean grammar (including thee and thou), but it tries to substitute some of the vocabulary that may not be understood by the modern reader.
The alterations in words are based on the second edition of the Webster New International Dictionary. There were no changes related to gender or theology. Recently, it has the capitalization of pronouns much like New King James Version, addressing Deity while keeping the archaic pronouns.
