< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
Praise Yahweh! (Happy are/He is pleased with) those who revere him, those who happily obey his commands.
2 Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
Their children will prosper in their land; and their descendants will be blessed [by God].
3 Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
Their families [MTY] will be very wealthy [DOU], and [the results of] their righteous deeds will endure forever.
4 Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Godly/Righteous people are [like] lights [SIM] that shine in the darkness on those who are kind, merciful and righteous.
5 Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
Things [will] go well for those who generously lend money to others and who conduct their businesses honestly.
6 Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
Righteous people will not be overwhelmed/worried/distressed [because of their troubles], and they will never be forgotten [by other people].
7 Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
They are not afraid of [receiving] bad news; they confidently/completely trust in Yahweh.
8 Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
They are confident and not afraid, because they know that they will see [God defeat] their enemies.
9 He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
They give things generously to poor/needy [people]; [the results of] their kind deeds will endure forever, and they [will] be exalted and honored.
10 The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
Wicked people see those things and are angry; they gnash their teeth [angrily], but they [will] disappear [and die]. The [wicked] things that they want to do [will] never happen.
