Psalms 112
1
Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments!
2
His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3
Wealth and riches are in his house; and his righteousness endures for ever.
4
Light rises in the darkness for the upright; the LORD is gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5
It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice.
6
For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered for ever.
7
He is not afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.
8
His heart is steady, he will not be afraid, until he sees his desire on his adversaries.
9
He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn is exalted in honor.
10
The wicked man sees it and is angry; he gnashes his teeth and melts away; the desire of the wicked man comes to nought.
