Psalms 112

1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.

Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man, that feareth the Lord, and deliteth greatly in his commandements.

2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

His seede shall be mightie vpon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.

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

Riches and treasures shalbe in his house, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

Vnto the righteous ariseth light in darkenes: he is merciful and full of copassion and righteous.

5 It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.

A good man is mercifull and lendeth, and will measure his affaires by iudgement.

6 Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.

Surely he shall neuer be moued: but the righteous shalbe had in euerlasting remembrance.

7 He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

He will not be afraide of euill tidings: for his heart is fixed, and beleeueth in the Lord.

8 His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.

His heart is stablished: therefore he will not feare, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.

9 He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.

He hath distributed and giuen to ye poore: his righteousnesse remaineth for euer: his horne shalbe exalted with glory.

10 The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.

The wicked shall see it and be angrie: he shall gnash with his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
