< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
Dumisani uThixo. Ubusisiwe umuntu owesaba uThixo, othokoza kakhulu ngemilayo yakhe.
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Abantwabakhe bazaba lamandla elizweni; isizukulwane soqotho sizabusiswa.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
Inotho lenzuzo kusendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kumi laphakade.
4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
Lasebumnyameni kuyavela ukukhanya kwabaqotho, emuntwini olomusa, olesihawu lolungileyo.
5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
Ubuhle buzakwehlela kuye ophanayo loweboleka ekhululekile, oqhuba zonke izinto zakhe ngemfanelo.
6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
Ngeqiniso kayikunyikinyeka; umuntu olungileyo uzakhunjulwa lanininini.
7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
Akayikwesaba imibiko emibi; inhliziyo yakhe ichumile, yethembele kuThixo.
8 His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.
Inhliziyo yakhe ikhululekile, akalakwesaba; ekucineni uzakhangela izitha zakhe ngokunqoba.
9 He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
Uhlakazele izipho zakhe kubayanga ezindaweni zonke, ukulunga kwakhe kumi laphakade; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiselwa phezulu ngenhlonipho.
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.
Umuntu omubi uzakubona lokhu afuthelane, uzagedla amazinyo akhe, acikizeke emzimbeni; izinkanuko zababi zizaphetha ziyize.
