Psalmorum 112

1 Alleluia, conversio Aggaei, et Zachariae. Beatus vir, qui timet Dominum: in mandatis eius volet nimis.

Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man, that feareth the Lord, and deliteth greatly in his commandements.

2 Potens in terra erit semen eius: generatio rectorum benedicetur.

His seede shall be mightie vpon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.

3 Gloria, et divitiae in domo eius: et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi.

Riches and treasures shalbe in his house, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

4 Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et iustus.

Vnto the righteous ariseth light in darkenes: he is merciful and full of copassion and righteous.

5 Iucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat, disponet sermones suos in iudicio:

A good man is mercifull and lendeth, and will measure his affaires by iudgement.

6 quia in aeternum non commovebitur.

Surely he shall neuer be moued: but the righteous shalbe had in euerlasting remembrance.

7 In memoria aeterna erit iustus: ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor eius sperare in Domino,

He will not be afraide of euill tidings: for his heart is fixed, and beleeueth in the Lord.

8 confirmatum est cor eius: non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.

His heart is stablished: therefore he will not feare, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.

9 Dispersit, dedit pauperibus: iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi, cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria.

He hath distributed and giuen to ye poore: his righteousnesse remaineth for euer: his horne shalbe exalted with glory.

10 Peccator videbit, et irascetur, dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.

The wicked shall see it and be angrie: he shall gnash with his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
