Psalms 112

1 Alleluya. Blissid is the man that dredith the Lord; he schal wilne ful myche in hise comaundementis.

Praise JAH. Blessed is the man who fears YHWH, who delights greatly in his commandments.

2 His seed schal be myyti in erthe; the generacioun of riytful men schal be blessid.

His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Glorie and richessis ben in his hous; and his riytfulnesse dwellith in to the world of world.

Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.

4 Liyt is risun vp in derknessis to riytful men; the Lord is merciful in wille, and a merciful doere, and riytful.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5 The man is merye, that doith merci, and leeneth; he disposith hise wordis in dom;

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

6 for he schal not be moued with outen ende.

For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.

7 A iust man schal be in euerlastinge mynde; he schal not drede of an yuel heryng. His herte is redi for to hope in the Lord;

He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in YHWH.

8 his herte is confermed, he schal not be moued, til he dispise hise enemyes.

His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.

9 He spredde abrood, he yaf to pore men; his riytwisnesse dwellith in to the world of world; his horn schal be reisid in glorie.

He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.

10 A synner schal se, and schal be wrooth; he schal gnaste with hise teeth, and schal faile; the desijr of synneris schal perische.

The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
