Psalms 112

1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

Halleluyah ·praise Yah·! א Blessed is the man who fears Adonai, בּ who delights greatly in his mitzvot ·instructions·.

2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

גּ His offspring will be mighty in the land. דּ The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

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

4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: [he is] gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

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

5 Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; he shall maintain his cause in judgment.

ט It is well with the man who is merciful and lends. י He will maintain his cause in judgment.

6 For he shall never be moved; the righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

כּ For he will never be shaken. ל The upright will be remembered forever.

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

מ He will not be afraid of evil news. נ His heart is steadfast, trusting in Adonai.

8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his adversaries.

ס His heart is established. ע He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.

9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; his righteousness endureth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

פּ He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. צ His righteousness endures forever. ק His horn will be exalted with kavod ·weighty glory·.

10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

ר The wicked will see it, and be grieved. שׁ He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. תּ The desire of the wicked will perish.
