[1] Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly
delights in his commandments! [2] His descendants will be mighty in the
land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. [3] Wealth and riches
are in his house; and his righteousness endures for ever. [4] Light rises
in the darkness for the upright; the LORD is gracious, merciful, and
righteous. [5] It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who
conducts his affairs with justice. [6] For the righteous will never be
moved; he will be remembered for ever. [7] He is not afraid of evil
tidings; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD. [8] His heart is steady,
he will not be afraid, until he sees his desire on his adversaries. [9] He
has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures
for ever; his horn is exalted in honor. [10] The wicked man sees it and is
angry; he gnashes his teeth and melts away; the desire of the wicked man
comes to nought.
