Psalms 112

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

Halleluja! Salig er den, der frygter Herren og ret har lyst til hans bud!

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

Hans Æt bliver mægtig på Jord, den oprigtiges Slægt velsignes;

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

Velstand og Rigdom er i hans Hus, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig.

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

For den oprigtige oprinder Lys i Mørke; han er mild, barmhjertig retfærdig.

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

Salig den, der ynkes og låner ud og styrer sine Sager med Ret;

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

thi han rokkes aldrig i Evighed, den retfærdige ihukommes for evigt;

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

han frygter ikke for onde Tidender, hans Hjerte er trøstigt i Tillid, til HERREN;

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

fast er hans Hjerte og uden Frygt, indtil han skuer sine Fjender med Fryd;

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

til fattige deler han rundhåndet ud, hans Retfærdighed varer evindelig; med Ære løfter hans Horn sig.

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

Den gudløse ser det og græmmer sig, skærer Tænder og går til Grunde; de gudløses Attrå bliver til intet.
