Psalms 111

1 Praise all of you the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

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

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

Store er Herrens verk, gjenomtenkte etter alle sine fyremål.

3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endures for ever.

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

4 He has made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

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

5 He has given food unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

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

6 He has showed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

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

7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

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

8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

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

9 He sent redemption unto his people: he has commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend 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: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endures for ever.

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