Psalms 112

1Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

1Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.

2 His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

2Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.

3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.

3From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.

4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

4The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.

5 It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

5Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:

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

6and looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;

7Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:

8 His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.

8That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.

9 He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

9Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.

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