Psalms 112

1 Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man who fears Jehovah, who delights greatly in his commandments.

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

2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth. The generation of the upright shall be blessed.

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

3 Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

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

4 To the upright there arises light in the darkness. He is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

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

5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He shall maintain his cause in judgment,

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

6 for he shall never be moved. A righteous man shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

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

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings. His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah.

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

8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, even until he looks over his adversaries.

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

9 He has scattered, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn shall be exalted with honor.

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

10 A wicked man shall see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of wicked men shall perish.

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