Psalms 111

1 Praise the LORD. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

Halleluja! jeg takker HERREN af hele mit Hjerte i Oprigtiges Kreds og Menighed!

2 The LORD's works are great, pondered by all those who delight in them.

Store er HERRENS Gerninger, gennemtænkte til Bunds.

3 His work is honor and majesty. His righteousness endures forever.

Hans Værk er Højhed og Herlighed, hans Retfærd bliver til evig Tid.

4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered. The LORD is gracious and merciful.

Han har sørget for, at hans Undere mindes, naadig og barmhjertig er HERREN.

Dem, der frygter ham, giver han Føde, han kommer for evigt sin Pagt i Hu.

6 He has shown his people the power of his works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.

Han viste sit Folk sine vældige Gerninger, da han gav dem Folkenes Eje.

7 The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts are sure.

Hans Hænders Værk er Sandhed og Ret, man kan lide paa alle hans Bud;

8 They are established forever and ever. They are done in truth and uprightness.

de staar i al Evighed fast, udført i Sandhed og Retsind.

HERRENS Frygt er Visdoms Begyndelse; forstandig er hver, som øver den. Evigt varer hans Pris!
