Psalms 111

1 Alleluia. I will confess to you, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the just and in the congregation.

Аллилуия. Славлю Тебя, Господи, всем сердцем моим в совете праведных и в собрании.

2 Great are the works of the Lord, exquisite in all his intentions.

Велики дела Господни, вожделенны для всех, любящих оные.

3 Confession and magnificence are his work. And his justice remains from age to age.

Дело Его - слава и красота, и правда Его пребывает вовек.

4 He has created a memorial to his wonders; he is a merciful and compassionate Lord.

Памятными соделал Он чудеса Свои; милостив и щедр Господь.

5 He has given food to those who fear him. He will be mindful of his covenant in every age.

Пищу дает боящимся Его; вечно помнит завет Свой.

6 He will announce the virtue of his works to his people,

Силу дел Своих явил Он народу Своему, чтобы дать ему наследие язычников.

7 so that he may give them the inheritance of the nations. The works of his hands are truth and judgment.

Дела рук Его - истина и суд; все заповеди Его верны,

8 All his commands are faithful: confirmed from age to age, created in truth and fairness.

тверды на веки и веки, основаны на истине и правоте.

9 He has sent redemption upon his people. He has commanded his covenant for all eternity. Holy and terrible is his name.

Избавление послал Он народу Своему; заповедал на веки завет Свой. Свято и страшно имя Его!

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding is for all who do it. His praise remains from age to age.

Начало мудрости - страх Господень; разум верный у всех, исполняющих заповеди Его. Хвала Ему пребудет вовек
