Psalm 112:1-10 Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
Blessed is the man, [who] fears [respects] the Lord & delights greatly in His commandments. Praise you the Lord. [The man’s descendants] shall be mighty upon the earth. The generation of the upright shall be blessed. Wealth & riches shall be in his house & his righteousness endures forever. |
[Matthew 6:33 Therefore, take no thought for [tomorrow:] for [tomorrow] shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient to the day is [its trouble.] |
Light has arisen there in the darkness [for] the upright. He is gracious & full of compassion & [is] righteous. [Luke 1:78-79 Through the tender mercy of our God: [by which] the Dayspring from on high has visited us, *To give Light to [those who] sit in darkness & in the shadow of death & to guide our feet into the [path] of peace.] |
A good man [declares] favor & lends. He will guide his affairs with discretion. [Lule 6:34-35 And if you lend to [those] whom you hope to receive, what [praise] do you have? |
For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But you, love your enemies & do good & lend, hoping for nothing again. And your reward shall be great & you shall be the children of the Highest: for He is kind to the unthankful & to the [wicked.] |
Surely, he won't be [removed] forever. The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. [Proverbs 10:7 For the memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.] |
He shall not be afraid of evil [news] & his heart is [steadfast,] trusting in the Lord. His heart is established & he shall not be afraid, until he [sees] his desire upon his enemies. |
He has [distributed] & he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn shall be exalted with honor. The wicked shall see it & be grieved. [The wicked] shall gnash with his teeth & melt away. The desire of the wicked shall perish. |
