Psalm 112:1-10 NWT
Praise Jah, you people! Happy is the man in fear of Jehovah, In whose commandments he has taken very much delight. 2 Mighty in the earth his offspring will become. As for the generation of the upright ones, it will be blessed. 3 Valuable things and riches are in his house; And his righteousness is standing forever. 4 He has flashed up in the darkness as a light to the upright ones. He is gracious and merciful and righteous. 5 The man is good who is gracious and is lending. He sustains his affairs with justice. 6 For at no time will he be made to totter. The righteous one will prove to be for remembrance to time indefinite. 7 He will not be afraid even of bad news. His heart is steadfast, made reliant upon Jehovah. 8 His heart is unshakable; he will not be afraid, Until he looks on his adversaries. 9 He has distributed widely; he has given to the poor ones. His righteousness is standing forever. His own horn will be exalted with glory. 10 The wicked one himself will see and certainly become vexed. He will grind his very teeth and actually melt away. The desire of the wicked ones will perish.
