Psalm 112 Contemporary English Version (CEV)🕊

God Blesses His Worshipers🕊

112:1 Shout praises to the Lord!
    The Lord blesses everyone
    who worships him and gladly
    obeys his teachings.
² Their descendants will have
    great power in the land,
    because the Lord blesses
    all who do right.
³ They will get rich and prosper
    and will always be remembered
    for their fairness.
⁴ They will be so kind
    and merciful and good,
that they will be a light
in the dark
    for others
    who do the right thing.

⁵ Life will go well for those
who freely lend
    and are honest in business.
⁶ They won’t ever be troubled,
    and the kind things they do
    will never be forgotten.
⁷ Bad news won’t bother them;
    they have decided
    to trust the Lord.
⁸ They are dependable
    and not afraid,
    and they will live to see
    their enemies defeated.
⁹ They will always be remembered
    and greatly praised,
    because they were kind
    and freely gave to the poor.
¹⁰ When evil people see this,
    they angrily bite their tongues
    and disappear.
They will never get
    what they really want.🕊
