Psalms 112

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

Praise Yahweh. Blessed is the man who obeys Yahweh, who greatly delights in his commandments.

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

His descendants will be powerful on earth; the descendants of the godly man will be blessed.

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

Wealth and riches are in his house; his righteousness will endure forever.

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

Light shines in the darkness for the godly person; he is gracious, merciful, and just.

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

It goes well for the man who deals graciously and lends money, who conducts his affairs with honesty.

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

For he will never be moved; the righteous person will be remembered forever.

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

He does not fear bad news; he is confident, trusting in Yahweh.

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

His heart is tranquil, without fear, until he looks in triumph over his adversaries.

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

He generously gives to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; he will be exalted with honor.

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

The wicked person will see this and be angry; he will grind his teeth in rage and he will melt away; the desire of the wicked people will perish.
