| 1 ¶ Praise1 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.2
|
|
| 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.
