< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.
Alleluia, Reversionis Aggæi, et Zachariæ. Beatus vir, qui timet Dominum: in mandatis eius volet nimis.
2 Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.
Potens in terra erit semen eius: generatio rectorum benedicetur.
3 Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.
Gloria, et divitiæ in domo eius: et iustitia eius manet in sæculum sæculi.
4 Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et iustus.
5 Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.
Iucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat, disponet sermones suos in iudicio:
6 For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.
quia in æternum non commovebitur.
7 Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.
In memoria æterna erit iustus: ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor eius sperare in Domino,
8 Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.
confirmatum est cor eius: non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.
9 He hath scattered — hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.
Dispersit, dedit pauperibus: iustitia eius manet in sæculum sæculi, cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria.
10 The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!
Peccator videbit, et irascetur, dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.
