Al justo le va bien

¡Aleluya!

Qué afortunado es el que teme al SEÑOR
    y le gusta mucho hacer lo que él manda.
Sus descendientes serán poderosos.
    Los que viven con honestidad serán bendecidos.
Su casa estará llena de riquezas y bienestar;
    la causa justa que apoya seguirá en pie.
Habrá luz en medio de la oscuridad para la gente honesta,
    porque Dios es misericordioso, compasivo y justo.
Le va bien a quien presta con generosidad
    y sabe administrar sus asuntos con justicia.
El justo siempre será recordado,
    nunca caerá.
No les teme a las malas noticias;
    porque su corazón está firme,
    confiado en el SEÑOR.
Siempre tiene confianza y no siente miedo;
    por eso podrá vencer a sus enemigos.
Reparte sus bienes,
    da a los pobres.
Nunca deja de hacer lo que es justo
    y recibirá grandes honores.

10 Cuando el perverso se dé cuenta de esto,
    se enojará y rechinará los dientes,
pero pronto desaparecerá
    y nunca logrará lo que desea.

Psalm 112[a]

Praise the Lord.[b](A)

Blessed are those(B) who fear the Lord,(C)
    who find great delight(D) in his commands.

Their children(E) will be mighty in the land;
    the generation of the upright will be blessed.
Wealth and riches(F) are in their houses,
    and their righteousness endures(G) forever.
Even in darkness light dawns(H) for the upright,
    for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.(I)
Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely,(J)
    who conduct their affairs with justice.

Surely the righteous will never be shaken;(K)
    they will be remembered(L) forever.
They will have no fear of bad news;
    their hearts are steadfast,(M) trusting in the Lord.(N)
Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear;(O)
    in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.(P)
They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor,(Q)
    their righteousness endures(R) forever;
    their horn[c] will be lifted(S) high in honor.

10 The wicked will see(T) and be vexed,
    they will gnash their teeth(U) and waste away;(V)
    the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.(W)

And his righteousness [b]endures forever.

He will guide his affairs (F)with discretion.
Surely he will never be shaken;
(G)The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.
(H)He will not be afraid of evil tidings;
His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
His (I)heart is established;
(J)He will not be afraid,
Until he (K)sees his desire upon his enemies.

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.
