Psalm 112

New Living Translation NLT

1 Praise the LORD ! How joyful are those who fear the LORD and delight in obeying his commands.

2 Their children will be successful everywhere; an entire generation of godly people will be blessed.

3 They themselves will be wealthy, and their good deeds will last forever.

4 Light shines in the darkness for the godly. They are generous, compassionate, and righteous.

5 Good comes to those who lend money generously and conduct their business fairly.

6 Such people will not be overcome by evil. Those who are righteous will be long remembered.

7 They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the LORD to care for them.

8 They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly.

9 They share freely and give generously to those in need. Their good deeds will be remembered forever. They will have influence and honor.

10 The wicked will see this and be infuriated. They will grind their teeth in anger; they will slink away, their hopes thwarted.

The Message Bible MSG

1 Hallelujah! Blessed man, blessed woman, who fear God, Who cherish and relish his commandments,

2 Their children robust on the earth, And the homes of the upright - how blessed!

3 Their houses brim with wealth And a generosity that never runs dry.

4 Sunrise breaks through the darkness for good people - God's grace and mercy and justice!

5 The good person is generous and lends lavishly;

6 No shuffling or stumbling around for this one, But a sterling and solid and lasting reputation.

7 Unfazed by rumor and gossip, Heart ready, trusting in God,

8 Spirit firm, unperturbed, Ever blessed, relaxed among enemies,

9 They lavish gifts on the poor - A generosity that goes on, and on, and on. An honored life! A beautiful life!

10 Someone wicked takes one look and rages, Blusters away but ends up speechless. There's nothing to the dreams of the wicked. Nothing.
