Translation:

Psalms 112

1 [a]

1 Praise the Lord.[b] 1 Blessed are those who fear the Lord, 1 who find great delight in his commands.

2 Their children will be mighty in the land; 2 the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in their houses, 3 and their righteousness endures forever.

4 Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, 4 for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.

5 Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, 5 who conduct their affairs with justice.

6 Surely the righteous will never be shaken; 6 they will be remembered forever.

7 They will have no fear of bad news; 7 their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.

8 Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; 8 in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.

9 They have scattered abroad their gifts to the poor, 9 their righteousness endures forever; 9 their horn[c] will be lifted high in honor.

10 The wicked will see and be vexed, 10 they will gnash their teeth and waste away; 10 the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.
