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.
