1 <V 111:1>Alleluia. Of the return of Haggai and Zachariah. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord. He will prefer his commandments exceedingly. Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments! Praise the LORD. Blessed are those who fear the LORD, who find great delight in his commands.
2 <V 111:2>His offspring will be powerful on the earth. The generation of the upright will be blessed. His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 <V 111:3>Glory and wealth will be in his house, and his justice shall remain from age to age. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever.
4 <V 111:4>For the upright, a light has risen up in the darkness. He is merciful and compassionate and just. Light dawns in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and righteous. Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.
5 <V 111:5>Pleasing is the man who shows mercy and lends. He will order his words with judgment. It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice. Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice.
6 <V 111:6>For he will not be disturbed in eternity. For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever. Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.
7 <V 111:7>The just one will be an everlasting memorial. He will not fear a report of disasters. His heart is prepared to hope in the Lord. He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD. They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 <V 111:8>His heart has been confirmed. He will not be disturbed, until he looks down upon his enemies. His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries. Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.
9 <V 111:9>He has distributed, he has given to the poor. His justice shall remain from age to age. His horn shall be exalted in glory. He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn is exalted in honor. They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor, their righteousness endures forever; their horn will be lifted high in honor.
10 <V 111:10>The sinner will see and become angry. He will gnash his teeth and waste away. The desire of sinners will perish. The wicked man sees it and is angry; he gnashes his teeth and melts away; the desire of the wicked will perish! The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.
