Psalms 112

1 Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;

Praise ye the LORD! Happy the man who feareth the LORD, Who taketh delight in his commandments!

2 Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;

His posterity shall be mighty on the earth; The race of the righteous 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; His righteousness shall endure for ever.

4 Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.

To the righteous shall arise light out of darkness; He is gracious and full of compassion and righteousness.

5 Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.

Happy the man who hath pity and lendeth! He shall 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;

Yea, he shall never be moved: 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 is not afraid of evil tidings; His heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.

8 Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.

His heart is firm; he hath no fear, Till he see his desire upon his enemies.

9 He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.

He hath scattered blessings; he hath given to the poor; His righteousness shall endure for ever; His horn shall be exalted with honor.

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 shall see, and be grieved; He shall gnash his teeth, and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.
