Psalms 111

1 Hallelujah. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

Pujilah TUHAN! Dengan segenap hati aku bersyukur kepada TUHAN di tengah himpunan umat-Nya.

2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have delight therein.

Sungguh ajaib perbuatan-perbuatan TUHAN, layak diselidiki oleh orang-orang yang menyukainya.

3 His work is glory and majesty; and His righteousness endureth for ever.

Pekerjaan TUHAN agung dan terpuji, keadilan-Nya kekal abadi.

4 He hath made a memorial for His wonderful works; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

TUHAN itu pengasih dan penyayang, Ia melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan yang mengagumkan, supaya kita tetap mengingatnya.

5 He hath given food unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.

Ia memberi rezeki kepada orang yang takwa, dan selalu ingat akan perjanjian-Nya.

6 He hath declared to His people the power of His works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.

Ia telah menunjukkan kuasa-Nya kepada umat-Nya, dengan memberi mereka tanah pusaka bangsa-bangsa.

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

TUHAN adil dan setia dalam segala tindakan-Nya, segala perintah-Nya dapat diandalkan.

8 They are established for ever and ever, they are done in truth and uprightness.

Hukum-Nya bertahan sepanjang masa, diberikan dalam kebenaran dan keadilan.

9 He hath sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; Holy and awful is His name.

Ia membebaskan umat-Nya, dan mengadakan perjanjian kekal dengan mereka. Dialah TUHAN yang kudus dan perkasa!

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter; His praise endureth for ever.

Barangsiapa ingin menjadi bijaksana harus menghormati TUHAN, Ia memberi pengertian kepada semua orang yang taat. Terpujilah TUHAN sepanjang masa!
