Salme 112

1 Halleluja! Salig er den, der frygter HERREN og ret har Lyst til hans Bud!

Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] O the blessedness of one fearing YHWH, He has greatly delighted in His commands.

2 Hans Æt bliver mægtig paa Jord, den Oprigtiges Slægt velsignes;

His seed is mighty in the earth, The generation of the upright is blessed.

3 Velstand og Rigdom er i hans Hus, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig.

Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing forever.

4 For den oprigtige oprinder Lys i Mørke; han er mild, barmhjertig, retfærdig.

Light has risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 Salig den, der ynkes og laaner ud og styrer sine Sager med Ret;

The man—good, gracious, and lending, He sustains his matters in judgment.

6 thi han rokkes aldrig i Evighed, den retfærdige ihukommes for evigt;

For he is not moved for all time; For the righteous is a continuous memorial.

7 han frygter ikke for onde Tidender, hans Hjerte er trøstigt i Tillid til HERREN;

He is not afraid of an evil report, His heart is prepared [and] confident in YHWH.

8 fast er hans Hjerte og uden Frygt, indtil han skuer sine Fjender med Fryd;

His heart is sustained—he does not fear, Until he looks on his adversaries.

9 til fattige deler han rundhaandet ud, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig; med Ære løfter hans Horn sig.

He has scattered—has given to the needy, His righteousness is standing forever, His horn is exalted with glory.

10 Den gudløse ser det og græmmer sig, skærer Tænder og gaar til Grunde; de gudløses Attraa bliver til intet.

The wicked sees, and has been angry, He gnashes his teeth, and has melted, The desire of the wicked perishes!
