Psalms 112

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

Alleluia. Reversionis Aggæi, et Zachariæ. Beatus vir, qui timet Dominum: in mandatis eius volet nimis.

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

Potens in terra erit semen eius: generatio rectorum benedicetur.

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

Gloria, et divitiæ in domo eius: et iustitia eius manet in sæculum sæculi.

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

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

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

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

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

quia in æternum non commovebitur.

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

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

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

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

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

Dispersit, dedit pauperibus: iustitia eius manet in sæculum sæculi, cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria.

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

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