Psalms 112
The Righteous Will Never Be Moved
1 [a] (a)Praise the Lord!
(b)Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
who (c)greatly delights in his commandments!
2 His (d)offspring will be mighty in the land;
(e)the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 (f)Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his (g)righteousness endures forever.
4 Light dawns in the darkness (h)for the upright;
he is gracious, merciful, and (i)righteous.
5 It is well with the man who (j)deals generously and lends;
who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will (k)never be moved;
(l)he will be remembered forever.
7 He is not (m)afraid of bad news;
his (n)heart is firm, (o)trusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is steady;[b] he will not be afraid,
until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has (p)distributed freely; he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever;
his (q)horn is exalted in honor.
10 The wicked man sees it and is angry;
he (r)gnashes his teeth and (s)melts away;
(t)the desire of the wicked will perish!
