Psalms 112

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

Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.

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

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

3 Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.

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

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

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, 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 who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgement.

6 Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;

For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.

7 Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;

He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, 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 will not be afraid in the end when he sees 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 has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will 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 will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
