Psalm 112

The Traits of the Righteous

1 Hallelujah![a]
Happy is the man who fears the Lord,
taking great delight in His commands.(a)

2 His descendants will be powerful in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.(b)
3 Wealth and riches are in his house,(c)
and his righteousness endures forever.(d)
4 Light shines in the darkness for the upright.(e)
He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous.(f)
5 Good will come to a man who lends generously
and conducts his business fairly.(g)
6 He will never be shaken.(h)
The righteous man will be remembered forever.(i)
7 He will not fear bad news;
his heart is confident, trusting in the Lord.(j)
8 His heart is assured; he will not fear.(k)
In the end he will look in triumph on his foes.(l)
9 He distributes freely to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever.(m)
His horn will be exalted in honor.(n)

10 The wicked man will see it and be angry;
he will gnash his teeth in despair.(o)
The desire of the wicked man will come to nothing.(p)
