Psalms 111

1 Praise Yahweh! I will thank Yahweh with my entire inner being, every time I am with a large group of godly/righteous people.

alleluia reversionis Aggei et Zacchariae confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo in consilio iustorum et congregatione

2 The things that Yahweh has done are wonderful! All those who are delighted/pleased with those things desire to (study/think about) them.

magna opera Domini exquisita in omnes voluntates eius

3 [Because of everything] that he does, people greatly honor him and respect him because he is a great king; the righteous/just things that he does will endure forever.

confessio et magnificentia opus eius et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi

4 He has [appointed/established festivals in which] we remember the wonderful things that he has done; Yahweh [always] is kind and merciful.

memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum misericors et miserator Dominus

5 He provides food for those who revere him; he never forgets the agreement that he made [with our ancestors].

escam dedit timentibus se memor erit in saeculum testamenti sui

6 By enabling his people to capture the lands that belonged to other people-groups, he has shown to [us], his people, that he is very powerful.

virtutem operum suorum adnuntiabit populo suo

7 He [MTY] faithfully [does what he has promised] and always does what is just/fair, and we can depend on him [to help us] when he commands us to do things.

ut det illis hereditatem gentium opera manuum eius veritas et iudicium

8 What he commands must be obeyed forever; and he acted in a true and righteous manner when he gave us those commands.

fidelia omnia mandata eius confirmata in saeculum saeculi facta in veritate et aequitate

9 He rescued [us], his people, [from being slaves in Egypt], and he made an agreement [with us] that will last forever. He [MTY] is holy and awesome!

redemptionem misit populo suo mandavit in aeternum testamentum suum sanctum et terribile nomen eius

10 Revering Yahweh is the way to become wise. All those who obey [his commands] will know what is good [for them to decide to do]. We should praise him forever!

initium sapientiae timor Domini intellectus bonus omnibus facientibus eum laudatio eius manet in saeculum saeculi
