Psalms 111

Alleluia. Blessed is the man that fears the Lord: he will delight greatly in his commandments.

Ἀλληλούϊα. Μακάριος ἀνὴρ ὁ φοβούμενος τὸν Κύριον, ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς αὐτοῦ θελήσει σφόδρα.

His seed shall be mighty in the earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Δυνατὸν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ, γενεὰ εὐθέων εὐλογηθήσεται·

Glory and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endures for evermore.

Δόξα καὶ πλοῦτος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ δικαιοσύνη αὐτοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος.

To the upright light has sprung up in darkness: he is pitiful, and merciful, and righteous.

Ἐξανέτειλεν ἐν σκότει φῶς τοῖς εὐθέσιν· ἐλεήμων καὶ οἰκτίρμων καὶ δίκαιος.

The good man is he that pities and lends: he will direct his affairs with judgment.

Χρηστὸς ἀνὴρ ὁ οἰκτείρων καὶ κιχρῶν, οἰκονομήσει τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ ἐν κρίσει,

For he shall not be moved for ever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα οὐ σαλευθήσεται· εἰς μνημόσυνον αἰώνιον ἔσται δίκαιος.

He shall not be afraid of any evil report: his heart is ready to trust in the Lord.

Ἀπὸ ἀκοῆς πονηρᾶς οὐ φοβηθήσεται· ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ ἐλπίζειν ἐπὶ Κύριον·

His heart is established, he shall not fear, till he shall see his desire upon his enemies.

Ἐστήρικται ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ, οὐ φοβηθῇ, ἕως οὗ ἐπίδῃ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ.

He has dispersed abroad; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for evermore: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

Ἐσκόρπισεν, ἔδωκε τοῖς πένησιν, ἡ δικαιοσύνη αὐτοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος· τὸ κέρας αὐτοῦ ὑψωθήσεται ἐν δόξῃ.

The sinner shall see and be angry, he shall gnash his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the sinner shall perish.

Ἁμαρτωλὸς ὄψεται καὶ ὀργισθήσεται, τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτοῦ βρύξει καὶ τακήσεται· ἐπιθυμία ἁμαρτωλοῦ ἀπολεῖται.
