Psalm 112

New Coverdale Version

Praise the Lord! Blessed is the one who fears the Lord, * who has great delight in his commandments.

His seed shall be mighty in the land; * the generation of the faithful shall be blessed.

Riches and plenteousness shall be in his house, * and his righteousness shall endure for ever.

For the upright, there rises light in the darkness; * he is merciful, loving, and righteous.

It is good for him to be generous in lending * and to guide his words with discretion.

For he shall never be moved, * and the righteous shall be kept in everlasting remembrance.

He will not be afraid of any evil tidings, * for his heart is steadfast and trusts in the Lord.

His heart is established, and will not fear; * at the last he shall see his desire upon his enemies.

He has given freely to the poor, * and his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

The ungodly shall see it, and shall be angry; * he shall gnash his teeth, and waste away; the desire of the ungodly shall perish.
