112:1 Praise the LORD! How God blesses the man who fears Him, Who greatly delights in His commandments. |
112:2 His descendants will have prominence on earth; The generation of the upright will receive blessings. |
112:3 Wealth and riches dwell in his house, And his righteousness endures forever. |
112:4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He shows graciousness, compassion, and righteousness. |
112:5 It bodes well with the man who shows graciousness and lends; He will maintain his cause in judgment. |
112:6 For he will never suffer unsettlement; People will remember the righteous forever. |
112:7 He will not fear evil tidings; His heart remains steadfast, trusting in the LORD. |
112:8 God upholds His heart, he will not fear, Until he looks with satisfaction on his adversaries. |
112:9 He has given freely to the poor, His righteousness endures forever; His horn will have exaltation in honor. |
112:10 The wicked will see it and suffer vexation, He will gnash his teeth and melt away; The desire of the wicked will perish. |
