< 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.
Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻoku ne manavahē kia Sihova, mo ne fiefia lahi ʻi heʻene ngaahi fekau.
2 His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.
‌ʻE mālohi hono hako ʻi māmani: ko e toʻutangata ʻoe angatonu tenau monūʻia.
3 A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.
‌ʻE ʻi hono fale ʻae koloa mo e nāunau: pea ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene angatonu.
4 For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.
‌ʻOku tupu ʻae maama ki he angatonu ʻi he poʻuli: ʻoku angaʻofa ia, pea fonu ʻi he manavaʻofa, pea māʻoniʻoni.
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.
‌ʻOku fakahā ʻe he tangata angalelei ʻae ʻofa, pea ʻoku faʻa ʻatu: te ne pule ki heʻene meʻa ʻi he poto.
6 He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai ueʻi ia ʻo lauikuonga: ʻe taʻengata ʻae fakamanatu ki he kakai māʻoniʻoni.
7 He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.
‌ʻE ʻikai te ne manavahē ki he ongoongo kovi: kuo maʻu hono loto ʻi he falala kia Sihova.
8 His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.
Kuo fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa hono loto: ʻe ʻikai te ne manavahē, ka ʻe mamata ia ki hono ngaahi fili.
9 He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.
Kuo tufa ʻe ia, kuo ne foaki ki he masiva; ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene angatonu; ʻe hiki hake hono nifo ʻi he ongolelei.
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.
‌ʻE mamata ki ai ʻae angahala, pea tenau mamahi: ʻe fengaiʻitaki hono nifo, pea ʻe mole atu ia: ʻe ʻauha ʻae holi ʻae angahala.
