Psalm 112
O praise the Lord.
Blessed is the man who fears the Lord
: and greatly delights in his commandments.
His children shall be mighty in the land
: a race of upright men who will be blessed.
Riches and plenty shall be in his house
: and his righteousness stands for ever.
Light arises in darkness for the upright
: gracious and merciful is the righteous man.
It goes well with the man who acts generously and lends
: who guides his affairs with justice.
Surely he shall never be moved
: the righteous shall be held in everlasting remembrance.
He will not fear bad tidings
: his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
His heart is confident and will not fear
: he will see the downfall of his enemies.
He gives freely to the poor
: his righteousness stands for ever, his head is uplifted in glory.
The wicked man shall see it and be angry
: he shall gnash his teeth and consume away;
and the hope of the wicked shall fail:
