I'm not sure if I've cut and pasted the Hebrew is correctly; if not it will probably give someone a good chuckle.
In Sing Psalms only this and Psalm 71 use this meter.

PSALM 111 9 8 9 8
1 Praise to the LORD! I will extol him
while gathering with the upright.
2 Great are the works of God, and pondered
by all who in them take delight.
3 His deeds are glorious and majestic;
his righteousness endures always.
4 He caused his works to be remembered;
kind is the LORD and full of grace.
5 Food he provides for those who fear him;
his covenant for ever stands.
6 His mighty works he showed his people
by giving them the nations’ lands.
7 Faithful and just are all his actions;
all his commands are faithful too,
8 Steadfast for ever and for ever.
The works of God are right and true.
9 He sent redemption for his people;
his covenant remains the same,
Ordained by him throughout all ages—
holy and awesome is his name.
10 Fear of the LORD gives rise to wisdom;
All those who walk in upright ways
Have insight and good understanding.
To him belongs eternal praise.
