< Psalms 112 >
1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.
Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will 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 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.
Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.
5 It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.
Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.
6 Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.
Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.
7 He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.
8 His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.
Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.
9 He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.
Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.
10 The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.
Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
