< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!
هَلِّلُويَا! طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَخْشَى الرَّبَّ وَيَبْتَهِجُ جِدّاً بِوَصَايَاهُ.١
2 Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.
ذُرِّيَّتُهُ تَكُونُ قَوِيَّةً فِي الأَرْضِ، جِيلُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ يَكُونُ مُبَارَكاً.٢
3 Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.
يَمْتَلِئُ بَيْتُهُ مَالاً وَغِنىً، وَبِرُّهُ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.٣
4 Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.
يُشْرِقُ نُورٌ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ لِلْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ حَنَّانٌ وَرَحِيمٌ وَصِدِّيقٌ.٤
5 Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.
سَعِيدٌ هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَتَحَنَّنُ وَيُقْرِضُ مَجَّاناً وَيُدَبِّرُ شُؤُونَهُ بِالْحَيْطَةِ وَالْعَدْلِ.٥
6 They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.
فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَتَزَعْزَعَ أَبَداً. ذِكْرُ الصِّدِّيقِ يَخْلُدُ إِلَى الأَبْدِ.٦
7 They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.
لَنْ يَخَافَ مِنْ خَبَرِ سُوءٍ، فَقَلْبُهُ ثَابِتٌ مُتَّكِلٌ عَلَى الرَّبِّ.٧
8 They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.
قَلْبُهُ ثَابِتٌ لَا تَعْتَرِيهِ الْمَخَاوِفُ، وَيَشْهَدُ عِقَابَ مَضْطَهِدِيهِ.٨
9 They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.
يُوَزِّعُ بِسَخَاءٍ وَيُعْطِي الْفُقَرَاءَ، وَبِرُّهُ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَيَرْتَفِعُ رَأْسُهُ بِاعْتِزَازٍ.٩
10 The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
يَرَى الشِّرِّيرُ ذَلِكَ فَيَغْتَاظُ، يَصِرُّ بِأَسْنَانِهِ وَيَذُوبُ إِذْ شَهْوَةُ الشِّرِّيرِ لَا تَتَحَقَّقُ.١٠
