The Blessed Fear of Yahweh// Psalm 112:1–10

A song of ascents.

¹Blessed are all who fear Yahweh,

who walk in His ways!

²For when you eat the fruit of your labor,

blessings and prosperity will be yours.

³Your wife will be like a fruitful vine

flourishing within your house,

your sons like olive shoots

sitting around your table.

⁴In this way indeed shall blessing come

to the man who fears Yahweh.

⁵May Yahweh bless you from Zion,

that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem

all the days of your life,

⁶that you may see

your children’s children.

Peace be upon Israel!

Frequently asked questions

What is TOM?

TOM is The Owner's Manual, a free translation built on the Berean Standard Bible. It uses modern measurements, prints Yahweh where the Hebrew has God's name, and puts words missing from the earliest manuscripts in [square brackets]. Every change is listed in How It Was Translated.

What do the colors mean?

Each color marks one kind of verse: lime green for prophecies about the Messiah, teal for miracles, sand for archaeology, and so on. Tap any color in the chapter key to turn it off. Use Customize to choose exactly which ones you see.

Can I read without highlights?

Yes. Turn off the Highlights switch at the top for plain text. Your choice is remembered on this device.

Do the other translations have the colors too?

Yes. The colors, red letters, bloodline names and study notes come from TOM and are matched to every other translation verse by verse, so you can read the KJV, NIV or any other translation here with the same study helps.

Is this free?

Yes. The whole Bible is free to read online. The printed Owner's Manual Study Bible is coming soon.
