Psalm 112

Psalm 112¹

Praise the Lord.^a

Blessed are those^b who fear the Lord,^c

who find great delight^d in his commands.

Their children^e will be mighty in the land;

the generation of the upright will be blessed.

Wealth and riches^f are in their houses,

and their righteousness endures^g forever.

Even in darkness light dawns^h for the upright,

for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.ⁱ

Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely,^j

who conduct their affairs with justice.

Surely the righteous will never be shaken;^k

they will be remembered^l forever.

They will have no fear of bad news;

their hearts are steadfast,^m trusting in the Lord.ⁿ

Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear;^o

in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.^p

They have scattered abroad their gifts to the poor,^q

their righteousness endures^r forever;

their horn will be lifted^s high in honor.

The wicked will see^t and be vexed,

they will gnash their teeth^u and waste away;^v

the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.^w
