1Praise ye Jehovah . Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah , That delighteth greatly in his commandments . 2His seed shall be mighty upon earth: The generation of the upright shall be blessed . 3Wealth and riches are in his house ; And his righteousness endureth for ever .
Generosity and Righteousness
4Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness : He is gracious , and merciful , and righteous . 5Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth ; He shall maintain his cause in judgment . 6For he shall never be moved ; The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance .
The Security of the Righteous
7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings : His heart is fixed , trusting in Jehovah . 8His heart is established , he shall not be afraid , Until he see his desire upon his adversaries . 9He hath dispersed , he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever : His horn shall be exalted with honor . 10The wicked shall see it , and be grieved ; He shall gnash with his teeth , and melt away : The desire of the wicked shall perish.
