Psalms 112

1 Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man, that feareth the Lord, and deliteth greatly in his commandements.

Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.

2 His seede shall be mightie vpon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.

His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Riches and treasures shalbe in his house, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Vnto the righteous ariseth light in darkenes: he is merciful and full of copassion and righteous.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

5 A good man is mercifull and lendeth, and will measure his affaires by iudgement.

It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.

6 Surely he shall neuer be moued: but the righteous shalbe had in euerlasting remembrance.

Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.

7 He will not be afraide of euill tidings: for his heart is fixed, and beleeueth in the Lord.

He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

8 His heart is stablished: therefore he will not feare, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.

His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.

9 He hath distributed and giuen to ye poore: his righteousnesse remaineth for euer: his horne shalbe exalted with glory.

He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.

10 The wicked shall see it and be angrie: he shall gnash with his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.
