Psalms 112

1 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.

Praise ye YHWH. Blessed is the man that feareth YHWH, 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 upon earth: 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 endureth 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 full of compassion, and righteous.

5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:

A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

6 Because he shall not be moved for ever.

Surely 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, trusting in YHWH.

8 His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.

His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

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 hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth 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 shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
