[ Read](/kjv/psalms/112)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/112)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/112) Audio

 1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed *is* the man *that* feareth the LORD, *that* delighteth greatly in his commandments.*

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

 3 Wealth and riches *shall be* in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

 4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: *he is* gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

 5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.*

 6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

 7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

 8 His heart *is* established, he shall not be afraid, until he see *his desire* upon his enemies.

 9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

 10 The wicked shall see *it*, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
 
[Psalms 111](/study/psalms/111) [Psalms 113](/study/psalms/113)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
**Praise ye the Lord -**Margin, as in Hebrew, “Hallelujah.” See the notes at [Psalms 106:1](/kjv/psalms/106/1). 

**Blessed is the man -**Hebrew, “The blessings of the man.” See the notes at [Psalms 1:1](/kjv/psalms/1/1). That is, Blessed, or happy, is such a one. 

**That feareth the Lord -**In [Psalms 111:10](/kjv/psalms/111/10), the psalmist had referred to “the fear of the Lord” as “the beginning of wisdom,” and had “alluded” to the success, prosperity, or happiness which attends the fear of the Lord, or true religion. This psalm is designed more fully “to illustrate” that thought. 

**That delighteth greatly in his commandments -**See the notes at [Psalms 1:2](/kjv/psalms/1/2). It is a characteristic of true piety to find pleasure in the commands of God; in the commandments themselves, and in obedience to them.
