Psalms 112:1-10

Psalms 112:1-10 AMP

Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!) Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who fears the LORD [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], Who delights greatly in His commandments. [Deut 10:12] His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever. Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous (upright—in right standing with God). It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; He conducts his affairs with justice. [Ps 37:26; Luke 6:35; Col 4:5] He will never be shaken; The righteous will be remembered forever. [Prov 10:7] ¶He will not fear bad news; His heart is steadfast, trusting [confidently relying on and believing] in the LORD. His heart is upheld, he will not fear While he looks [with satisfaction] on his adversaries. He has given freely to the poor; His righteousness endures forever; His horn will be exalted in honor. [2 Cor 9:9] ¶The wicked will see it and be angered, He will gnash his teeth and melt away [in despair and death]; The desire of the wicked will perish and come to nothing.
