Psalms 112

DOUAI-RHEIMS	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.	1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.	2 Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever.
3 Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.	3 From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord.
4 To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.	4 The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory is high above the heavens.
5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:	5 Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high,
6 because he shall not be moved for ever.	6 and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth?
7 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:	7 He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth,
8 his heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.	8 so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people.
9 He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.	9 He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
10 The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
