Psalm 112
Living Bible
112 Praise the Lord! For all who fear God and trust in him are blessed beyond expression. Yes, happy is the man who delights in doing his commands.
2 His children shall be honored everywhere, for good men’s sons have a special heritage. 3 He himself shall be wealthy, and his good deeds will never be forgotten. 4 When darkness overtakes him, light will come bursting in. He is kind and merciful— 5 and all goes well for the generous man who conducts his business fairly.
6 Such a man will not be overthrown by evil circumstances. God’s constant care of him will make a deep impression on all who see it. 7 He does not fear bad news, nor live in dread of what may happen. For he is settled in his mind that Jehovah will take care of him. 8 That is why he is not afraid but can calmly face his foes. 9 He gives generously to those in need. His deeds will never be forgotten.[a] He shall have influence and honor.
10 Evil-minded men will be infuriated when they see all this; they will gnash their teeth in anger and slink away, their hopes thwarted.

The Blessed State of the Righteous
112 Praise[a] the Lord!
Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
Who (A)delights greatly in His commandments.
2 (B)His descendants will be mighty on earth;
The generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 (C)Wealth and riches will be in his house,
And his righteousness [b]endures forever.
4 (D)Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness;
He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 (E)A good man deals graciously and lends;
He will guide his affairs (F)with discretion.
6 Surely he will never be shaken;
(G)The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.
7 (H)He will not be afraid of evil tidings;
His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
8 His (I)heart is established;
(J)He will not be afraid,
Until he (K)sees his desire upon his enemies.
9 He has dispersed abroad,
He has given to the poor;
His righteousness endures forever;
His [c]horn will be exalted with honor.
10 The wicked will see it and be grieved;
He will gnash his teeth and melt away;
The desire of the wicked shall perish.

Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
Alina omukisa omuntu atya Katonda,
era asanyukira ennyo mu mateeka ge.
2 Abaana be baliba ba kitiibwa mu nsi;
omulembe gw’abalongoofu guliweebwa omukisa.
3 Ennyumba ye enejjulanga ebintu n’obugagga obungi;
era anaabanga mutuukirivu ennaku zonna.
4 (B)Ne mu kizikiza, ekitangaala kyakira omulongoofu,
alina ekisa, n’oyo alina okusaasira, era omutuukirivu.
5 (C)Omuntu oyo agabira abeetaaga, era tawolera magoba,
era akola emirimu gye gyonna n’obwenkanya, alifuna ebirungi.
6 (D)Omutuukirivu talinyeenyezebwa,
era anajjukirwanga ennaku zonna.
7 (E)Amawulire amabi tegaamutiisenga,
kubanga omutima gwe munywevu gwesiga Mukama.
8 (F)Omutima gwe guteredde, tewali ky’anaatyanga,
era oluvannyuma alitunuulira abalabe be n’amaaso ag’obuwanguzi.
9 (G)Agabidde abaavu bye beetaaga;
mutuukirivu ebbanga lyonna;
era bonna banaamussangamu ekitiibwa.
10 (H)Omubi anaabirabanga ebyo, n’asunguwala,
n’aluma abugigi, naye nga talina kya kukola.
Okwegomba kw’ababi tekuubengako kye kubagasa.
