The Book of Psalms

  Psalm 111  

111:1 Alleluia, of the returning of Aggæus and Zacharias. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.
Alleluja, reversionis Aggæi et Zachariæ. Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis ejus volet nimis.

111:2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.
Potens in terra erit semen ejus; generatio rectorum benedicetur.

111:3 Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.
Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.

111:4 To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just.
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et justus.

111:5 Acceptable is the man that sheweth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:
Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in judicio:

111:6 because he shall not be moved for ever.
quia in æternum non commovebitur.

111:7 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:
In memoria æterna erit justus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino,

111:8 his heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.
confirmatum est cor ejus; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.

111:9 He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory.
Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi: cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.

111:10 The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth, and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.
