< Psalms 112 >
1 Hallelujah. Happy is the man that feareth the Lord, that greatly delighteth in his commandments.
Pujilah TUHAN! Berbahagialah orang yang takwa, yang suka akan perintah-perintah TUHAN.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Anak-anaknya akan berkuasa di negeri ini, keturunan orang baik akan diberkati.
3 Plenty and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness shall endure for ever.
Keluarganya akan kaya dan makmur, dan ia akan sejahtera selama-lamanya.
4 There ariseth in the darkness a light to the upright: he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
Terang bersinar dalam kegelapan bagi orang jujur, bagi orang yang adil, pengasih dan penyayang.
5 Well will it be with the man who is kind, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with justice.
Berbahagialah orang yang murah hati dan suka meminjamkan serta jujur dalam segala urusan.
6 Surely unto eternity shall he not be moved: in everlasting remembrance shall the righteous be held.
Orang baik tak akan gagal; ia akan diingat selama-lamanya.
7 Of an evil report shall he not be afraid: his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.
Ia tidak takut menerima kabar buruk, hatinya teguh karena percaya kepada TUHAN.
8 Well supported is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until he looketh on [the punishment of] his assailants.
Ia tidak cemas atau takut, karena yakin musuhnya akan dikalahkan.
9 He distributeth, he giveth to the needy: his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted in honor.
Ia membagi-bagikan hartanya, dan memberi sedekah kepada orang miskin; ia selalu melakukan yang baik, sebab itu ia berkuasa dan dihormati.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be vexed; he will gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the longing of the wicked shall perish.
Orang jahat melihatnya dan menjadi marah; mereka menggertakkan gigi karena benci. Lalu mereka binasa; harapan mereka hilang untuk selama-lamanya.
