< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.
Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.
2 Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.
Inzalo yakhe izakuba lamandla emhlabeni; isizukulwana sabaqotho sizabusiswa.
3 Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.
Imfuyo lenotho kuzakuba sendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kuzakuma kuze kube nininini.
4 Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.
5 Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.
Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.
6 For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.
Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.
7 Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.
Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.
8 Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.
Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.
9 He hath scattered — hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.
Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.
10 The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!
Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
