< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise ye the LORD! Happy the man who feareth the LORD, Who taketh delight in his commandments!
Alleluja, reversionis Aggæi et Zachariæ. Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis ejus volet nimis.
2 His posterity shall be mighty on the earth; The race of the righteous shall be blessed.
Potens in terra erit semen ejus; generatio rectorum benedicetur.
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house; His righteousness shall endure for ever.
Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.
4 To the righteous shall arise light out of darkness; He is gracious and full of compassion and righteousness.
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et justus.
5 Happy the man who hath pity and lendeth! He shall sustain his cause in judgment;
Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in judicio:
6 Yea, he shall never be moved: The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
quia in æternum non commovebitur.
7 He is not afraid of evil tidings; His heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.
In memoria æterna erit justus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino,
8 His heart is firm; he hath no fear, Till he see his desire upon his enemies.
confirmatum est cor ejus; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.
9 He hath scattered blessings; he hath given to the poor; His righteousness shall endure for ever; His horn shall be exalted with honor.
Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi: cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.
10 The wicked shall see, and be grieved; He shall gnash his teeth, and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.
Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.
