< Psalms 112 >

1 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.
Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.
Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.
4 To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.
Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:
It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.
6 Because he shall not be moved for ever.
For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
7 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;
8 His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.
His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.
9 He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.
He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
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.
