Psalms 112

1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

Halleluyah ·praise Yah·! א Blessed is the man who fears Adonai, בּ who delights greatly in his mitzvot ·instructions·.

2 His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

גּ His offspring will be mighty in the land. דּ The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.

ה Wealth and riches are in his house. ו His righteousness endures forever.

4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

ז Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, ח gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5 It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

ט It is well with the man who is merciful and lends. י He will maintain his cause in judgment.

6 For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

כּ For he will never be shaken. ל The upright will be remembered forever.

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;

מ He will not be afraid of evil news. נ His heart is steadfast, trusting in Adonai.

8 His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.

ס His heart is established. ע He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.

9 He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

פּ He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. צ His righteousness endures forever. ק His horn will be exalted with kavod ·weighty glory·.

10 The wicked [man] shall see [it] and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

ר The wicked will see it, and be grieved. שׁ He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. תּ The desire of the wicked will perish.
