Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

Halleluja! Eg vil prisa Herren av alt mitt hjarta i råd og samling av ærlege.

2 Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

Store er Herrens verk, gjenomtenkte etter alle sine fyremål.

3 Splendid and majestic is His work; His righteousness endures forever.

Høgd og herlegdom er hans gjerning, og hans rettferd stend æveleg fast.

4 He has caused His wonders to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and compassionate.

Han hev sett eit minne for sine under, nådig og miskunnsam er Herren.

5 He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever.

Mat hev han gjeve deim som ottast honom; han kjem æveleg i hug si pakt.

6 He has shown His people the power of His works by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

Krafti av sine verk hev han kunngjort for sitt folk, då han gav deim arven til heidningarne.

7 The works of His hands are truth and justice; all His precepts are trustworthy.

Det hans hender gjer, er sanning og rett, alle hans fyresegner er trufaste,

8 They are upheld forever and ever, enacted in truth and uprightness.

fast stend dei æveleg og alltid, dei er gjorde i sanning og rettvisa.

9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; holy and awesome is His name.

Han hev sendt sitt folk utløysing, han hev skipa si pakt æveleg, hans namn er heilagt og skræmelegt.

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow His precepts gain rich understanding. His praise endures forever!

Otte for Herren er upphav til visdom, godt vit hev alle som gjer etter det. Hans pris varer æveleg.
