Psalms 112

1 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.

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

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

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

3 Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.

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

4 To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.

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

5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:

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

6 Because he shall not be moved for ever.

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

7 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:

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

8 His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.

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

9 He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.

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

10 The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall 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.
