Psalm 111

1Alleluia.

Blessed is the man that fears the Lord: he will delight greatly in his commandments. 2His seed shall be mighty in the earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed. 3Glory and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endures for evermore. 4To the upright light has sprung up in darkness: he is pitiful, and merciful, and righteous. 5The good man is he that pities and lends: he will direct his affairs with judgment. 6For he shall not be moved for ever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. 7He shall not be afraid of any evil report: his heart is ready to trust in the Lord. 8His heart is established, he shall not fear, till he shall see his desire upon his enemies. 91 He has dispersed abroad; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for evermore: his horn shall be exalted with honour. 10The sinner shall see and be angry, he shall gnash his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the sinner shall perish.
