For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
