Psalms 111 Comparison: KJV with Apocrypha vs Douay-Rheims
Psalms 111
1Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
5He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
6He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
Psalms 111
1Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.
2His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
3Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.
4To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.
5Acceptable is the man that sheweth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:
6Because he shall not be moved for ever.
7The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not fear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:
8His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.
9He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.
10The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
