Psalm 111
1 Halleluja! Ik zal de Heer van harte prijzen.
Ik prijs Hem wanneer de mensen die van Hem houden
naar de bijeenkomst komen.
2 De Heer doet geweldige dingen.
De mensen die daarvan genieten, denken er steeds aan.
3 Aan alles wat Hij doet is te zien hoe machtig Hij is.
Hij is altijd rechtvaardig, voor eeuwig.
4 Hij zorgt ervoor dat niemand zijn wonderen vergeet.
Hij is goed en liefdevol voor de mensen.
5 De mensen die ontzag voor Hem hebben
geeft Hij altijd genoeg te eten.
Hij houdt Zich voor eeuwig aan zijn verbond.
6 Hij liet zijn volk zien hoe machtig Hij is:
Hij gaf de landen van andere volken aan zijn eigen volk.
7 Alles wat Hij doet, is goed en rechtvaardig.
Alles wat Hij zegt, is te vertrouwen.
8 Zijn wetten gelden voor eeuwig.
Ze zijn goed en rechtvaardig.
9 Hij heeft zijn volk gered.
Hij heeft met hen een eeuwig verbond gesloten.
Hij is indrukwekkend en heilig.
10 Als je wijs wil worden, heb dan ontzag voor de Heer.
Dat is het begin van alle wijsheid.
De Heer moet voor eeuwig geprezen worden.
