Psalms 112

1 Alleluia. Of the return of Haggai and Zachariah. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord. He will prefer his commandments exceedingly.

הַלְלוּ ־ יָהּ ׀ אַשְׁרֵי־אִישׁ יָרֵא אֶת־יְהֹוָה בְּמִצְוֺתָיו חָפֵץ מְאֹֽד׃

2 His offspring will be powerful on the earth. The generation of the upright will be blessed.

גִּבּוֹר בָּאָרֶץ יִהְיֶה זַרְעוֹ דּוֹר יְשָׁרִים יְבֹרָֽךְ׃

3 Glory and wealth will be in his house, and his justice shall remain from age to age.

הוֹן־וָעֹשֶׁר בְּבֵיתוֹ וְצִדְקָתוֹ עֹמֶדֶת לָעַֽד׃

4 For the upright, a light has risen up in the darkness. He is merciful and compassionate and just.

זָרַח בַּחֹשֶׁךְ אוֹר לַיְשָׁרִים חַנּוּן וְרַחוּם וְצַדִּֽיק׃

5 Pleasing is the man who shows mercy and lends. He will order his words with judgment.

טֽוֹב־אִישׁ חוֹנֵן וּמַלְוֶה יְכַלְכֵּל דְּבָרָיו בְּמִשְׁפָּֽט׃

6 For he will not be disturbed in eternity.

כִּֽי־לְעוֹלָם לֹֽא־יִמּוֹט לְזֵכֶר עוֹלָם יִהְיֶה צַדִּֽיק׃

7 The just one will be an everlasting memorial. He will not fear a report of disasters. His heart is prepared to hope in the Lord.

מִשְּׁמוּעָה רָעָה לֹא יִירָא נָכוֹן לִבּוֹ בָּטֻחַ בַּיהֹוָֽה׃

8 His heart has been confirmed. He will not be disturbed, until he looks down upon his enemies.

סָמוּךְ לִבּוֹ לֹא יִירָא עַד אֲשֶׁר־יִרְאֶה בְצָרָֽיו׃

9 He has distributed, he has given to the poor. His justice shall remain from age to age. His horn shall be exalted in glory.

פִּזַּר ׀ נָתַן לָאֶבְיוֹנִים צִדְקָתוֹ עֹמֶדֶת לָעַד קַרְנוֹ תָּרוּם בְּכָבֽוֹד׃

10 The sinner will see and become angry. He will gnash his teeth and waste away. The desire of sinners will perish.

רָשָׁע יִרְאֶה ׀ וְכָעָס שִׁנָּיו יַחֲרֹק וְנָמָס תַּאֲוַת רְשָׁעִים תֹּאבֵֽד׃
