to fulfil one's promise immediately / no sooner said than done

A person who follows through on what they promise; one who promptly fulfills their commitments.

("He saw Mercury and said: Blessed be He who grants patience to those who transgress His will... Blessed is He who speaks and acts, who decrees and fulfills" – Berakhot 57b; also from the morning prayer “Baruch She’amar”; and in Peretz’s story Hasidut, the righteous man answers and acts immediately.)

אוֹמֵר וְעוֹשֶׂה

Definition (Hebrew)

אָדָם שֶׁיּוֹדֵעַ לְבַצֵּעַ אֶת הַדְּבָרִים שֶׁהִתְחַיֵּב לְבַצְּעָם. אָדָם שֶׁמִּזְדָּרֵז לְקַיֵּם אֶת הַבְטָחָתוֹ.

("רְאֵה מַרְקוּלִיס אוֹמֵר: בָּרוּךְ שֶׁנָּתַן אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם לְעוֹבְרֵי רְצוֹנוֹ. רְאֵה מָקוֹם שֶׁנּוֹטְלִין מִמֶּנּוּ עָפָר אוֹמֵר: בָּרוּךְ אוֹמֵר וְעוֹשֶׂה גּוֹזֵר וּמְקַיֵּם"- בְּרָכוֹת נז ע"ב, וְכֵן:"בָּרוּךְ שֶׁאָמַר וְהָיָה הָעוֹלָם, בָּרוּךְ הוּא, בָּרוּךְ אוֹמֵר וְעוֹשֶׂה, בָּרוּךְ גּוֹזֵר וּמְקַיֵּם"-תְּפִלַּת "בָּרוּךְ שֶׁאָמַר" הַנֶּאֱמֶרֶת בִּתְפִלַּת שַׁחֲרִית, וְכֵן:"וּמִי יַסִּיק לִי בַּתַּנּוּר?נֶאֶנְחָה הָאִשָּׁה...וְהַצַּדִּיק עוֹנָה שֶׁהוּא יַסִּיק לָהּ...וְהוּא אוֹמֵר וְעוֹשֶׂה"-פָּרַץ/ חֲסִידוּת, אִם לֹא לְמַעְלָה מִזֶּה)
