< Psalms 112 >
1 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.
Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
Inzalo yakhe izakuba lamandla emhlabeni; isizukulwana sabaqotho sizabusiswa.
3 Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.
Imfuyo lenotho kuzakuba sendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kuzakuma kuze kube nininini.
4 To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.
Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.
5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:
Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.
6 Because he shall not be moved for ever.
Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.
7 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:
Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.
8 His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.
Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.
9 He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.
Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.
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.
Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
