Psalms 112

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

Dumisani uThixo. Ubusisiwe umuntu owesaba uThixo, othokoza kakhulu ngemilayo yakhe.

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

Abantwabakhe bazaba lamandla elizweni; isizukulwane soqotho sizabusiswa.

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

Inotho lenzuzo kusendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kumi laphakade.

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

Lasebumnyameni kuyavela ukukhanya kwabaqotho, emuntwini olomusa, olesihawu lolungileyo.

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

Ubuhle buzakwehlela kuye ophanayo loweboleka ekhululekile, oqhuba zonke izinto zakhe ngemfanelo.

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

Ngeqiniso kayikunyikinyeka; umuntu olungileyo uzakhunjulwa lanininini.

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

Akayikwesaba imibiko emibi; inhliziyo yakhe ichumile, yethembele kuThixo.

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

Inhliziyo yakhe ikhululekile, akalakwesaba; ekucineni uzakhangela izitha zakhe ngokunqoba.

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

Uhlakazele izipho zakhe kubayanga ezindaweni zonke, ukulunga kwakhe kumi laphakade; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiselwa phezulu ngenhlonipho.

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

Umuntu omubi uzakubona lokhu afuthelane, uzagedla amazinyo akhe, acikizeke emzimbeni; izinkanuko zababi zizaphetha ziyize.
