< Psalms 112 >

1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.
Alleluja, reversionis Aggæi et Zachariæ. Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis ejus volet nimis.
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
Potens in terra erit semen ejus; generatio rectorum benedicetur.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.
Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.
4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et justus.
5 It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.
Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in judicio:
6 Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.
quia in æternum non commovebitur.
7 He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
In memoria æterna erit justus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino,
8 His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.
confirmatum est cor ejus; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.
9 He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.
Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi: cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.
10 The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.
Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.
