< Psalms 111 >
1 Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.
Αινείτε τον Κύριον. Θέλω εξυμνεί τον Κύριον εν όλη καρδία, εν βουλή ευθέων και εν συνάξει.
2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.
Μεγάλα τα έργα του Κυρίου, εξηκριβωμένα υπό πάντων των ηδυνομένων εις αυτά.
3 His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honor: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.
Ένδοξον και μεγαλοπρεπές το έργον αυτού, και η δικαιοσύνη αυτού μένει εις τον αιώνα.
4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.
Αξιομνημόνευτα έκαμε τα θαυμάσια αυτού· ελεήμων και οικτίρμων είναι ο Κύριος.
5 He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.
Έδωκε τροφήν εις τους φοβουμένους αυτόν· θέλει ενθυμείσθαι διαπαντός την διαθήκην αυτού.
6 He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.
Ανήγγειλε προς τον λαόν αυτού την δύναμιν των έργων αυτού, διά να δώση εις αυτούς κληρονομίαν εθνών.
7 The works of his hands are truth and judgment: all his commandments are sure:
Τα έργα των χειρών αυτού είναι αλήθεια και κρίσις· αληθιναί πάσαι αι εντολαί αυτού·
8 established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.
εστερεωμέναι εις τον αιώνα του αιώνος, πεποιημέναι εν αληθεία και ευθύτητι.
9 He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.
Απέστειλε λύτρωσιν προς τον λαόν αυτού· διώρισε την διαθήκην αυτού εις τον αιώνα· άγιον και φοβερόν το όνομα αυτού.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.
Αρχή σοφίας φόβος Κυρίου· πάντες οι πράττοντες αυτάς έχουσι σύνεσιν καλήν· η αίνεσις αυτού μένει εις τον αιώνα.
