Psalm 112-113

American Standard Version

^[a]112 Praise ye Jehovah.
Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah,
That delighteth greatly in his commandments.
² His seed shall be mighty upon earth:
The generation of the upright shall be blessed.
³ Wealth and riches are in his house;
And his righteousness endureth for ever.
⁴ Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness:
He is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
⁵ Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth;
He shall maintain his cause in judgment.
⁶ For he shall never be moved;
The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
⁷ He shall not be afraid of evil tidings:
His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah.
⁸ His heart is established, he shall not be afraid,
Until he see his desire upon his adversaries.
⁹ He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy;
His righteousness endureth for ever:
His horn shall be exalted with honor.
¹⁰ The wicked shall see it, and be grieved;
He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away:
The desire of the wicked shall perish.

^[b]113 Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah,
Praise the name of Jehovah.
² Blessed be the name of Jehovah
From this time forth and for evermore.
³ From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same
Jehovah’s name is to be praised.
⁴ Jehovah is high above all nations,
And his glory above the heavens.
⁵ Who is like unto Jehovah our God,
That hath his seat on high,
⁶ That humbleth himself ^[c]to behold
The things that are in heaven and in the earth?
⁷ He raiseth up the poor out of the dust,
And lifteth up the needy from the dunghill;
⁸ That he may set him with princes,
Even with the princes of his people.
⁹ He maketh the barren woman to keep house,
And to be a joyful mother of children.
^[d]Praise ye Jehovah.
