111 Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.

He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

10 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.

111 Prijs de Here!
Met mijn hele hart prijs ik de Here
te midden van de gelovigen en in de samenkomsten.
Alles wat de Here heeft gemaakt,
is geweldig groot
en wie Hem liefhebben,
zullen daar voortdurend over nadenken.
Alles wat Hij doet,
beschrijft zijn macht en heerlijkheid en majesteit.
Hij blijft tot in eeuwigheid de rechtvaardige.
Hij wil ook dat wij altijd
zijn wonderen in herinnering houden.
De Here is vol genade en liefdevol meeleven.
Wie ontzag voor Hem hebben,
ontvangen voedsel van Hem.
Nooit zal Hij zijn verbond vergeten.
Hij toonde zijn volk zijn kracht en grote daden,
door hun het hele land te geven
dat voorheen aan de heidenen toebehoorde.
Alles wat Hij doet,
bevat waarheid en rechtvaardigheid.
Elk woord dat Hij beveelt,
is betrouwbaar.
Wat Hij zegt,
staat voor eeuwig vast.
Hij doet het ook
en het is altijd getrouw aan de waarheid
en volkomen oprecht.
Hij heeft zijn volk bevrijd,
zijn verbond ligt voor eeuwig vast.
Zijn naam is heilig
en alle ontzag waard.
10 Het diepe ontzag voor de Here
is de eerste voorwaarde om ware wijsheid te verkrijgen.
Ieder die ontzag voor de Here heeft,
krijgt van Hem verstand en inzicht.
De eer van de Here
wordt voor eeuwig hoog gehouden.
