< Mazmur 111 >
1 Pujilah TUHAN! Dengan segenap hati aku bersyukur kepada TUHAN di tengah himpunan umat-Nya.
Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 Sungguh ajaib perbuatan-perbuatan TUHAN, layak diselidiki oleh orang-orang yang menyukainya.
The works of the LORD are great, sought out by all them that have pleasure in them.
3 Pekerjaan TUHAN agung dan terpuji, keadilan-Nya kekal abadi.
His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 TUHAN itu pengasih dan penyayang, Ia melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan yang mengagumkan, supaya kita tetap mengingatnya.
He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5 Ia memberi rezeki kepada orang yang takwa, dan selalu ingat akan perjanjian-Nya.
He hath given food to them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
6 Ia telah menunjukkan kuasa-Nya kepada umat-Nya, dengan memberi mereka tanah pusaka bangsa-bangsa.
He hath shown his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7 TUHAN adil dan setia dalam segala tindakan-Nya, segala perintah-Nya dapat diandalkan.
The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8 Hukum-Nya bertahan sepanjang masa, diberikan dalam kebenaran dan keadilan.
They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 Ia membebaskan umat-Nya, dan mengadakan perjanjian kekal dengan mereka. Dialah TUHAN yang kudus dan perkasa!
He sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10 Barangsiapa ingin menjadi bijaksana harus menghormati TUHAN, Ia memberi pengertian kepada semua orang yang taat. Terpujilah TUHAN sepanjang masa!
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
