1 H allelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

2 H is seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 W ealth and riches in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.

4 U nto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 I t is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

6 F or he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

7 H e shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;

8 H is heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see upon his oppressors.

9 H e scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

10 T he wicked shall see and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
