Psalms 112

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

Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;

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

Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;

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

Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.

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

Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.

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

Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.

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

Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;

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

Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;

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

Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.

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

He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.

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.

The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
