Psalms 112

1 Praise Yahweh. Blessed is the man who obeys Yahweh, who greatly delights in his commandments.

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

2 His descendants will be powerful on earth; the descendants of the godly man will be blessed.

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

3 Wealth and riches are in his house; his righteousness will endure forever.

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

4 Light shines in the darkness for the godly person; he is gracious, merciful, and just.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5 It goes well for the man who deals graciously and lends money, who conducts his affairs with honesty.

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

6 For he will never be moved; the righteous person will be remembered forever.

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

7 He does not fear bad news; he is confident, trusting in Yahweh.

He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Yahweh.

8 His heart is tranquil, without fear, until he looks in triumph over his adversaries.

His heart is established. He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.

9 He generously gives to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; he will be exalted with honor.

He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked person will see this and be angry; he will grind his teeth in rage and he will melt away; the desire of the wicked people will perish.

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