Psalms 111

1 Praise the Lord! I will thank the Lord with all my heart in the congregation of the faithful.

Jeg vil prise Herren af ganske Hjerte i de oprigtiges Raad og i Menigheden.

2 All the wonderful things the Lord has done are studied by everyone who loves them.

Herrens Gerninger ere store, de blive søgte af alle dem, som have Lyst til dem.

3 His majesty and honor are revealed by what he does; his goodness lasts forever.

Hans Værk er Majestæt og Herlighed, og hans Retfærdighed bestaar alle Tider.

4 He wants the wonderful things he has done to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and kind.

Han beskikkede en Ihukommelse om sine underfulde Gerninger; naadig og barmhjertig er Herren.

5 He feeds those who respect him; he always remembers the agreement he made.

Han har givet dem Spise, som frygte ham, han kommer evindelig sin Pagt i Hu.

6 He demonstrated to his people the powerful things he could do by giving them the lands of other nations.

Han har ladet sine Gerningers Kraft forkynde for sit Folk, idet han har givet dem Hedningernes Arv.

7 Everything he does can be depended on, and is right; all his commandments are trustworthy.

Hans Hænders Gerninger ere Sandhed og Ret, alle hans Befalinger ere trofaste.

8 They remain rock-solid forever. He was true and right in saying what should be done.

De ere grundfaste altid og evindelig, de ere satte i Sandhed og Oprigtighed.

9 He delivered his people. He commanded that his agreement would continue forever. How holy and awesome is his reputation!

Han sendte sit Folk Forløsning, han stiftede sin Pagt for evigt; hans Navn er helligt og forfærdeligt.

10 The beginning of wisdom is honoring the Lord. Those who follow what he says do well. He is to be praised forever!

Herrens Frygt er Visdoms Begyndelse, en god Klogskab hos alle dem, som gøre derefter; hans Pris bestaar altid.
