112:1 Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

112:2 His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.

112:3 A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.

112:4 For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

112:5 All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

112:6 He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.

112:7 He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.

112:8 His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.

112:9 He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

112:10 The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
