< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man, that feareth the Lord, and deliteth greatly in his commandements.
Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.
2 His seede shall be mightie vpon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is 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 is standing for ever.
4 Vnto the righteous ariseth light in darkenes: he is merciful and full of copassion and righteous.
Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
5 A good man is mercifull and lendeth, and will measure his affaires by iudgement.
Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.
6 Surely he shall neuer be moued: but the righteous shalbe had in euerlasting remembrance.
For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.
7 He will not be afraide of euill tidings: for his heart is fixed, and beleeueth in the Lord.
Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.
8 His heart is stablished: therefore he will not feare, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.
Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.
9 He hath distributed and giuen to ye poore: his righteousnesse remaineth for euer: his horne shalbe exalted with glory.
He hath scattered — hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.
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 seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!
