Psalm 112

R. A light rises in the darkness for the upright.
Or: Alleluia.

A light rises in the darkness for the upright;
He is generous, merciful and just.
It goes well for the man who deals generously and lends,
Who conducts his affairs with justice. R.

He will never be moved;
Forever shall the just be remembered.
He has no fear of evil news;
With a firm heart, he trusts in the Lord. R.

With a steadfast heart he will not fear.
Open-handed, he gives to the poor;
His justice stands firm forever.
His might shall be exalted in glory. R.
