Psalms 111:10

Psa 111:10 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.

Ver. 10. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom ] Or the principal point and chief perfection. See Pro 1:7 Job 28:28 . See Trapp on " Pro 1:7 " See Trapp on " Job 28:28 "

A good understanding have all they ] So much a man knoweth in true account, as he doth; hence understanding is here ascribed to the will; so Job 28:28 . See Ecclesiastes 10:2 . Some render it, Good success.

His praise endureth for ever ] i.e. God’s praise; for they that understand it of the godly wise man understand not the propriety of the Hebrew word Tehillah, saith an interpreter.
