English Standard Version
The Righteous Will Never Be Moved
112 [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!

Salmi 112
La Nuova Diodati
112 Alleluia. Beato l'uomo che teme l'Eterno e trova grande gioia nei suoi comandamenti.
2 La sua progenie sarà potente sulla terra, la posterità degli uomini retti sarà benedetta.
3 Nella sua casa c'è abbondanza e ricchezze e la sua giustizia dura per sempre.
4 La luce si leva nelle tenebre per quelli che sono retti, per l'uomo misericordioso, compassionevole e giusto.
5 Sarà felice l'uomo che usa misericordia e dà in prestito, e dirige i suoi affari con giustizia,
6 perché non sarà mai smosso; il giusto sarà ricordato per sempre.
7 Egli non temerà cattive notizie; il suo cuore è fermo, fiducioso nell'Eterno.
8 Il suo cuore è sicuro; egli non avrà paura alcuna, finché non guarderà trionfante sui suoi nemici.
9 Egli ha sparso liberamente, ha dato ai bisognosi; la sua giustizia dura per sempre e la sua potenza sarà elevata in gloria.
10 L'empio lo vedrà e si irriterà, digrignerà i denti e si consumerà; il desiderio degli empi non si realizzerà mai.
