< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
2 Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.
4 Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
5 Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.
6 Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
7 Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;
8 Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.
9 He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
The wicked [man] shall see [it] and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
