Psalms 112

Psalm 112 ESV

1The blessedness and security of the godly: 10the wicked shall repine thereat.
1 a 1Praise the Lord! 2Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who 3greatly delights in his commandments!
2 His 1offspring will be mighty in the land; 2the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 1Wealth and riches are in his house, and his 2righteousness endures forever.
4 Light dawns in the darkness 1for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and 2righteous.
5 It is well with the man who 1deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will 1never be moved; 2he will be remembered forever.
7 He is not 1afraid of bad news; his 2heart is firm, 3trusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is steady;a he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has 1distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his 2horn is exalted in honor.
10 The wicked man sees it and is angry; he 1gnashes his teeth and 2melts away; 3the desire of the wicked will perish!
