< Psalmorum 112 >
1 alleluia reversionis Aggei et Zacchariae beatus vir qui timet Dominum in mandatis eius volet nimis
Hallelujah. Happy is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in His commandments.
2 potens in terra erit semen eius generatio rectorum benedicetur
His seed shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 gloria et divitiae in domo eius et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi
Wealth and riches are in his house; and his merit endureth for ever.
4 exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis misericors et miserator et iustus
Unto the upright He shineth as a light in the darkness, gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 iucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat disponet sermones suos in iudicio
Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth, that ordereth his affairs rightfully.
6 quia in aeternum non commovebitur
For he shall never be moved; the righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
7 in memoria aeterna erit iustus ab auditione mala non timebit paratum cor eius sperare in Domino
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is stedfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 confirmatum est cor eius non commovebitur donec dispiciat inimicos suos
His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he gaze upon his adversaries.
9 dispersit dedit pauperibus iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria
He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted in honour.
10 peccator videbit et irascetur dentibus suis fremet et tabescet desiderium peccatorum peribit
The wicked shall see it, and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.
