Psalms 112

1 Praise JAH. Blessed is the man who fears Jehovah, who delights greatly in his commandments.

Halleluja! Salig er den, der frygter HERREN og ret har Lyst til hans Bud!

2 His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.

Hans Æt bliver mægtig paa Jord, den Oprigtiges Slægt velsignes;

3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.

Velstand og Rigdom er i hans Hus, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig.

4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.

For den oprigtige oprinder Lys i Mørke; han er mild, barmhjertig, retfærdig.

5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

Salig den, der ynkes og laaner ud og styrer sine Sager med Ret;

6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.

thi han rokkes aldrig i Evighed, den retfærdige ihukommes for evigt;

7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Jehovah.

han frygter ikke for onde Tidender, hans Hjerte er trøstigt i Tillid til HERREN;

8 His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.

fast er hans Hjerte og uden Frygt, indtil han skuer sine Fjender med Fryd;

9 He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.

til fattige deler han rundhaandet ud, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig; med Ære løfter hans Horn sig.

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.

Den gudløse ser det og græmmer sig, skærer Tænder og gaar til Grunde; de gudløses Attraa bliver til intet.
