Blessed is The Man Who Fears The LORD


PSALM

112:1Praise the LORD! Blessed [is] the man [who] fears the LORD, [Who] delights greatly in His commandments.
112:2His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed.
112:3Wealth and riches [will be] in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.
112:4Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness; [He is] gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
112:5A good man deals graciously and lends; He will guide his affairs with discretion.
112:6Surely he will never be shaken; The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.
112:7He will not be afraid of evil tidings; His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
112:8His heart [is] established; He will not be afraid, Until he sees [his desire] upon his enemies.
112:9He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever; His horn will be exalted with honor.
112:10The wicked will see [it] and be grieved; He will gnash his teeth and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.
