Psalms 112

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

Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.

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

Inzalo yakhe izakuba lamandla emhlabeni; isizukulwana sabaqotho sizabusiswa.

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

Imfuyo lenotho kuzakuba sendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kuzakuma kuze kube nininini.

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

Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.

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

Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.

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

Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.

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

Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.

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

Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.

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

Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.

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.

Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
