Psalms 112

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

Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, 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 upon earth: 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 are in his house: and his righteousness endureth 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 full of compassion, and righteous.

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

Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; he shall maintain 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 never be moved; the righteous shall be had 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, trusting in the LORD.

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

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

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 dispersed, he hath given to the needy; his righteousness endureth 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 shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
