< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
8 His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.
Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
9 He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
10 The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
