Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands.
- Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
- Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever.
- Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.
- Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice.
- Surely the righteous will never be shaken;
- they will be remembered forever.
- They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord. Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear;
- in the end they will look in triumph on their foes. (They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor)
- their righteousness endures forever;
- their horn will be lifted high in honour.
The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.
