< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.
2 Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
Inzalo yakhe izakuba lamandla emhlabeni; isizukulwana sabaqotho sizabusiswa.
3 Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
Imfuyo lenotho kuzakuba sendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kuzakuma kuze kube nininini.
4 Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.
5 Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.
6 Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.
7 Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.
8 Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.
9 He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.
10 The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
