Psalms 112

1 Alleluya. Blissid is the man that dredith the Lord; he schal wilne ful myche in hise comaundementis.

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

2 His seed schal be myyti in erthe; the generacioun of riytful men schal be blessid.

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

3 Glorie and richessis ben in his hous; and his riytfulnesse dwellith in to the world of world.

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

4 Liyt is risun vp in derknessis to riytful men; the Lord is merciful in wille, and a merciful doere, and riytful.

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

5 The man is merye, that doith merci, and leeneth; he disposith hise wordis in dom;

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

6 for he schal not be moued with outen ende.

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

7 A iust man schal be in euerlastinge mynde; he schal not drede of an yuel heryng. His herte is redi for to hope in the Lord;

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

8 his herte is confermed, he schal not be moued, til he dispise hise enemyes.

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

9 He spredde abrood, he yaf to pore men; his riytwisnesse dwellith in to the world of world; his horn schal be reisid in glorie.

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

10 A synner schal se, and schal be wrooth; he schal gnaste with hise teeth, and schal faile; the desijr of synneris schal perische.

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