Psalms 111

1 Praise ye Yah! I will give thanks unto Yahweh, with a whole heart, in the circle of the upright and the assembly.

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

2 Great are the works of Yahweh, sought out, by all who find pleasure therein.

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

3 Honourable and majestic, is his doing, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.

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

4 A memorial, hath he made by his wonders, Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh.

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

5 Food, hath he given to them who revere him, He will remember, age-abidingly, his covenant.

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

6 The might of his works, hath he declared to his people, that he may give them the inheritance of the nations.

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

7 The works of his hands, are faithful and just, Firm are all his precepts;

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

8 Upheld to futurity, to times age-abiding, done in faithfulness and equity.

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

9 Ransom, hath he sent to his people, He hath commanded, to times age-abiding, his covenant, Holy and reverend, is his Name.

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

10 The beginning of wisdom, is the reverence of Yahweh, Good discretion, have all that do them, His praise, endureth for aye.

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