Psalms 112
Prosperity of the One Who Fears the Lord.
11Praise 2the Lord! How 3blessed is the man who 4fears the Lord, Who greatly 5delights in His commandments.2His 67descendants will be mighty 8on earth; The generation of the 9upright will be blessed.310Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.4Light arises in the darkness 11for the upright; He is 12gracious and compassionate and righteous.5It is well with the man who 13is gracious and lends; He will 14maintain his cause in judgment.6For he will 15never be shaken; The 16righteous will be 17remembered forever.
7He will not fear 18evil tidings; His 19heart is steadfast, 20trusting in the Lord.8His 21heart is upheld, he 22will not fear, Until he 23looks with satisfaction on his adversaries.924He 25has given freely to the poor, His righteousness endures forever; His 26horn will be exalted in honor.
10The 27wicked will see it and be 28vexed, He will 29gnash his teeth and 30melt away; The 31desire of the wicked will perish.
