Psalms 112

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

He has scattered—has given to the needy, His righteousness is standing forever, His horn is 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 sees, and has been angry, He gnashes his teeth, and has melted, The desire of the wicked perishes!
