< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise Yahweh. Blessed is the man who obeys Yahweh, who greatly delights in his commandments.
Alleluja, reversionis Aggæi et Zachariæ. [Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis ejus volet nimis.
2 His descendants will be powerful on earth; the descendants of the godly man will be blessed.
Potens in terra erit semen ejus; generatio rectorum benedicetur.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house; his righteousness will endure forever.
Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.
4 Light shines in the darkness for the godly person; he is gracious, merciful, and just.
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et justus.
5 It goes well for the man who deals graciously and lends money, who conducts his affairs with honesty.
Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in judicio:
6 For he will never be moved; the righteous person will be remembered forever.
quia in æternum non commovebitur.
7 He does not fear bad news; he is confident, trusting in Yahweh.
In memoria æterna erit justus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino,
8 His heart is tranquil, without fear, until he looks in triumph over his adversaries.
confirmatum est cor ejus; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.
9 He generously gives to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; he will be exalted with honor.
Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi: cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.
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.
Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.]
