Psalms 112

1 Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] O the blessedness of one fearing YHWH, He has greatly delighted in His commands.

Praise Yahweh. Blessed is the man who obeys Yahweh, who greatly delights in his commandments.

2 His seed is mighty in the earth, The generation of the upright is blessed.

His descendants will be powerful on earth; the descendants of the godly man will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing forever.

Wealth and riches are in his house; his righteousness will endure forever.

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

Light shines in the darkness for the godly person; he is gracious, merciful, and just.

5 The man—good, gracious, and lending, He sustains his matters in judgment.

It goes well for the man who deals graciously and lends money, who conducts his affairs with honesty.

6 For he is not moved for all time; For the righteous is a continuous memorial.

For he will never be moved; the righteous person will be remembered forever.

7 He is not afraid of an evil report, His heart is prepared [and] confident in YHWH.

He does not fear bad news; he is confident, trusting in Yahweh.

8 His heart is sustained—he does not fear, Until he looks on his adversaries.

His heart is tranquil, without fear, until he looks in triumph over his adversaries.

9 He has scattered—has given to the needy, His righteousness is standing forever, His horn is exalted with glory.

He generously gives to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; he will be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked sees, and has been angry, He gnashes his teeth, and has melted, The desire of the wicked perishes!

The wicked person will see this and be angry; he will grind his teeth in rage and he will melt away; the desire of the wicked people will perish.
