[1] Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in His commandments. [2] His offspring shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed. [3] Wealth and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. [4] To the upright there arises light in the darkness; he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. [5] A good man shows generous favor, and lends; he will guide his affairs with justice. [6] Surely the righteous man shall not be moved; 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 sees triumph upon his enemies. [9] He has given away freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn shall be exalted with honor. [10] The wicked shall see it and be grieved; he shall gnash his teeth and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.
