Psalms 112

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Hallelujah! Happy are those who fear the LORD, who greatly delight in God's commands.	1 Al eluia! How blessed is anyone who fears Yahweh, who delights in his commandments!
2 Their descendants shall be mighty in the land, generation upright and blessed.	2 His descendants shal be powerful on earth, the race of the honest shal receive blessings:
3 Wealth and riches shall be in their homes; their prosperity shall endure forever.	3 Riches and wealth for his family; his uprightness stands firm for ever.
4 They shine through the darkness, a light for the upright; they are gracious, merciful, and just.	4 For the honest he shines as a lamp in the dark, generous, tender-hearted, and upright.
5 All goes well for those gracious in lending, who conduct their affairs with justice.	5 Al goes wel for one who lends generously, who is honest in al his dealing;
6 They shall never be shaken; the just shall be remembered forever.	6 for al time to come he wil not stumble, for al time to come the upright wil be remembered.
7 They shall not fear an ill report; their hearts are steadfast, trusting the LORD.	7 Bad news holds no fears for him, firm is his heart, trusting in Yahweh.
8 Their hearts are tranquil, without fear, till at last they look down on their foes.	8 His heart held steady, he has no fears, til he can gloat over his enemies.
9 Lavishly they give to the poor; their prosperity shall endure forever; their horn shall be exalted in honor.	9 To the needy he gives without stint, his uprightness stands firm for ever; his reputation is founded onstrength.
10 The wicked shall be angry to see this; they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked come to nothing.	10 The wicked are vexed at the sight, they grind their teeth and waste away. The desires of the wickedwil be frustrated.
