Psalm 112

[1]   Praise the LORD!  
          Happy are those who fear the LORD,  
          who greatly delight in his commandments.  
[2]   Their descendants will be mighty in the land;  
          the generation of the upright will be blessed.  
[3]   Wealth and riches are in their houses,  
          and their righteousness endures forever.  
[4]   They rise in the darkness as a light for the upright;  
          they are gracious, merciful, and righteous.  
[5]   It is well with those who deal generously and lend,  
          who conduct their affairs with justice.  
[6]   For the righteous will never be moved;  
          they will be remembered forever.  
[7]   They are not afraid of evil tidings;  
          their hearts are firm, secure in the LORD.  
[8]   Their hearts are steady, they will not be afraid;  
          in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.  
[9]   They have distributed freely, they have given to the poor;  
          their righteousness endures forever;  
          their horn is exalted in honor.  
[10]  The wicked see it and are angry;  
          they gnash their teeth and melt away;  
          the desire of the wicked comes to nothing.
