Psalms 112

1 Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

¡Hallelú Yah! Dichoso el hombre que teme a Yahvé, en sus preceptos halla el sumo deleite.

2 His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.

Su descendencia será poderosa sobre la tierra; la estirpe de los rectos es bendecida.

3 A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.

En su casa hay bienestar y abundancia, y su justicia permanece para siempre.

4 For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

Para los rectos brilla una luz en las tinieblas: el Clemente, el Misericordioso, el Justo.

5 All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

Bien le va al hombre que se compadece y presta; reglará sus negocios con discreción;

6 He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.

nunca resbalará; el justo quedará en memoria eterna.

7 He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.

No temerá malas nuevas; su corazón está firme, confiado en Yahvé.

8 His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.

Su ánimo es constante, impávido, hasta ver confundidos a sus adversarios.

9 He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

Distribuye y da a los pobres largamente; su justicia permanece para siempre, su triunfo será exaltado con gloria.

10 The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.

Lo verá el impío y se enfurecerá, se consumirá rechinando los dientes. Estéril será la envidia de los pecadores.
