Salmos 112

1 Bienaventurado el varón que teme a Jehová: en sus mandamientos se deleita en gran manera:

Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!

2 Su simiente será valiente en la tierra: la generación de los rectos será bendita.

Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.

3 Hacienda y riquezas habrá en su casa; y su justicia permanece para siempre.

Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.

4 Resplandeció en las tinieblas luz a los rectos: clemente, y misericordioso, y justo.

Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.

5 El buen varón tiene misericordia, y presta: gobierna sus cosas con juicio.

Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.

6 Por lo cual para siempre no resbalará: en memoria eterna será el justo:

They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.

7 De mala fama no tendrá temor: su corazón está aparejado, confiado en Jehová.

They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.

8 Asentado está su corazón, no temerá, hasta que vea en sus enemigos la venganza.

They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.

9 Esparce, da a los pobres, su justicia permanece para siempre; su cuerno será ensalzado en gloria.

They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.

10 El impío verá, y airarse ha: sus dientes crujirá, y carcomerse ha: el deseo de los impíos perecerá.

The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
