Psalms 112

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

Hallelujah. Happy is the man that feareth the Lord, that greatly delighteth in his commandments.

2 His seede shall be mightie vpon 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 Riches and treasures shalbe in his house, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

Plenty and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness shall endure for ever.

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

There ariseth in the darkness a light to the upright: he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

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

Well will it be with the man who is kind, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with justice.

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

Surely unto eternity shall he not be moved: in everlasting remembrance shall the righteous be held.

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

Of an evil report shall he not be afraid: his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.

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

Well supported is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until he looketh on [the punishment of] his assailants.

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

He distributeth, he giveth to the needy: his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted 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 shall see it, and be vexed; he will gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the longing of the wicked shall perish.
