< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
Pujilah TUHAN! Berbahagialah orang yang takwa, yang suka akan perintah-perintah TUHAN.
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Anak-anaknya akan berkuasa di negeri ini, keturunan orang baik akan diberkati.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
Keluarganya akan kaya dan makmur, dan ia akan sejahtera selama-lamanya.
4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
Terang bersinar dalam kegelapan bagi orang jujur, bagi orang yang adil, pengasih dan penyayang.
5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
Berbahagialah orang yang murah hati dan suka meminjamkan serta jujur dalam segala urusan.
6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
Orang baik tak akan gagal; ia akan diingat selama-lamanya.
7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
Ia tidak takut menerima kabar buruk, hatinya teguh karena percaya kepada TUHAN.
8 His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.
Ia tidak cemas atau takut, karena yakin musuhnya akan dikalahkan.
9 He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with 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 will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
Orang jahat melihatnya dan menjadi marah; mereka menggertakkan gigi karena benci. Lalu mereka binasa; harapan mereka hilang untuk selama-lamanya.
