1 Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
2 His seed will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
