Psalms 112

1 Praise all of you the LORD. Blessed is the man that fears the LORD, that delights greatly in his commandments.

Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.

2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.

3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endures for ever.

Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.

4 Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 A good man shows favour, and lends: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.

6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.

8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.

9 He has dispersed, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

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 grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt 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!
