The Righteous Will Never Be Moved

112 [a] (A)Praise the Lord!
(B)Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
    who (C)greatly delights in his commandments!
His (D)offspring will be mighty in the land;
    (E)the generation of the upright will be blessed.
(F)Wealth and riches are in his house,
    and his (G)righteousness endures forever.
Light dawns in the darkness (H)for the upright;
    he is gracious, merciful, and (I)righteous.
It is well with the man who (J)deals generously and lends;
    who conducts his affairs with justice.
For the righteous will (K)never be moved;
    (L)he will be remembered forever.
He is not (M)afraid of bad news;
    his (N)heart is firm, (O)trusting in the Lord.
His heart is steady;[b] he will not be afraid,
    until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
He has (P)distributed freely; he has given to the poor;
    his righteousness endures forever;
    his (Q)horn is exalted in honor.
10 The wicked man sees it and is angry;
    he (R)gnashes his teeth and (S)melts away;
    (T)the desire of the wicked will perish!

Who Is like the Lord Our God?

113 (U)Praise the Lord!
(V)Praise, O (W)servants of the Lord,
    praise the name of the Lord!

(X)Blessed be the name of the Lord
    from this time forth and forevermore!
(Y)From the rising of the sun to its setting,
    (Z)the name of the Lord is (AA)to be praised!

The Lord is (AB)high above all nations,
    and his (AC)glory above the heavens!
(AD)Who is like the Lord our God,
    who is seated on high,
who (AE)looks far down
    on the heavens and the earth?
He (AF)raises the poor from the dust
    and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
to make them (AG)sit with princes,
    with the princes of his people.
He (AH)gives the barren woman a home,
    making her the joyous mother of children.
(AI)Praise the Lord!
