Psalm 112
¹ Praise Yah!1 Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments.
² His offspring will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
³ Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
⁴ Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
⁵ It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
⁶ For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
⁷ He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Yahweh.
⁸ His heart is established. He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.
⁹ He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
¹⁰ The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
