Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.

2 His seede shall be mightie vpon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.

His descendants will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Riches and treasures shalbe in his house, and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.

4 Vnto the righteous ariseth light in darkenes: he is merciful and full of copassion and righteous.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5 A good man is mercifull and lendeth, and will measure his affaires by iudgement.

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

6 Surely he shall neuer be moued: but the righteous shalbe had in euerlasting remembrance.

For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.

7 He will not be afraide of euill tidings: for his heart is fixed, and beleeueth in the Lord.

He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

8 His heart is stablished: therefore he will not feare, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.

His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.

9 He hath distributed and giuen to ye poore: his righteousnesse remaineth for euer: his horne shalbe exalted with glory.

He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked shall see it and be angrie: he shall gnash with his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
