心を尽くして神に感謝しよう。 神をたたえる人のつどいの中で。 神のわざは偉大。 人は そのわざを尋ね求めて喜ぶ。 神のわざは力と輝きに満ち、 その正義は とこしえに及ぶ。 神は不思議なわざの記念を残された。 神は恵み豊かで あわれみ深く、 おそれる者には かてを恵み、 とこしえに契約を心に留めてくださる。 神は その民に力を現わし、 国々の領地を分け与えられた。 神のわざには まことと恵み。 すべての定めは ゆるぎなく、 世々、とこしえにすえられ、 正しさと まことに基づいている。 神はその民を救い、 契約をとこしえに結ばれた。 神の名は とうとく、おそるべきもの。 神をおそれることは知恵のはじめ。 これを行なう者は すべてをわきまえる。 神への賛美は世々、とこしえに。 |
I will thank the Lord with all my heart in the meeting of the just and their assembly. Great are the works of the Lord; to be pondered by all who love them. Majestic and glorious his work, his justice stands firm for ever. He makes us remember his wonders. The Lord is compassion and love. He gives food to those who fear him; keeps his covenant ever in mind. He has shown his might to his people by giving them the lands of the nations. His works are justice and truth: his precepts are all of them sure, standing firm for ever and ever: they are made in uprightness and truth. He has sent deliverance to his people and established his covenant for ever. Holy his name, to be feared. To fear the Lord is the first stage of wisdom; all who do so prove themselves wise. His praise shall last for ever ! |
