Psalms 112

1 Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.

Praise ye the LORD. Blessed [is] the man [that] feareth the LORD, [that] delighteth greatly in his commandments.

2 Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.

His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.

Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

To the upright there ariseth light in darkness: [he is] gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

5 Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.

A good man showeth favor, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

6 For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.

Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

7 Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

8 Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.

His heart [is] established, he shall not be afraid, until he seeth [his desire] upon his enemies.

9 He hath scattered — hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.

He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!

The wicked shall see [it], and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
