Psalm 112
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!

Prosperidad del que teme al Señor
Aleluya.
112 Dichoso el hombre que honra al Señor
y se deleita obedeciendo sus mandatos.
2 Sus hijos tendrán poder en la tierra,
y serán bendecidos por su rectitud.
3 Su casa rebosará de bienestar y de riquezas,
y su justicia permanecerá para siempre.
4 Para los justos, la luz brilla en las tinieblas.
Dios es bueno, justo y compasivo.
5 El hombre bueno es compasivo y generoso;
todos sus negocios los maneja con justicia,
6 y por eso nunca tendrá tropiezos.
El hombre justo siempre será recordado;
7 vivirá sin temor a las malas noticias,
y su corazón estará firme y confiando en el Señor.
8 Su corazón estará tranquilo, sin ningún temor,
y llegará a ver la caída de sus enemigos.
9 El justo comparte con los pobres lo que tiene;
su justicia permanece para siempre,(A)
y con mucha honra puede ostentar su poder.
10 El malvado lo ve y se enoja;
rechinando los dientes, se irá consumiendo;
pero sus malos deseos no prosperarán.
