Psalm 112

English Standard Version

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!
