1 Praise ye theLord. Blessed is the man that feareth theLord, 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 are in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness:he isgracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; he shall maintain his cause in judgment.
6 For he shall never be moved; the righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in theLord.
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he seehis desireupon his adversaries.
9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; 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.
