Psalms 112

1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed [is] the man [that] feareth the LORD, [that] delighteth greatly in his commandments.

Praise ye the LORD! Happy the man who feareth the LORD, Who taketh delight in his commandments!

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

His posterity shall be mighty on the earth; The race of the righteous shall be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

Wealth and riches shall be in his house; His righteousness shall endure for ever.

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

To the righteous shall arise light out of darkness; He is gracious and full of compassion and righteousness.

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

Happy the man who hath pity and lendeth! He shall sustain his cause in judgment;

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

Yea, he shall never be moved: The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

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

He is not afraid of evil tidings; His heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.

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

His heart is firm; he hath no fear, Till he see his desire upon his enemies.

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

He hath scattered blessings; he hath given to the poor; His righteousness shall endure for ever; His horn shall be exalted with honor.

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 shall see, and be grieved; He shall gnash his teeth, and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.
