< Psalms 112 >
1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
His offspring will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.
Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5 It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.
It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgement.
6 For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;
He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.
His heart is established. 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.
He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honour.
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.
The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
