1 Alleluja, reversionis Aggæi et Zachariæ. Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis ejus volet nimis.

Alleluia. Of the return of Haggai and Zachariah. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord. He will prefer his commandments exceedingly.

His offspring will be powerful on the earth. The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus, et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.

4 Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et justus.

For the upright, a light has risen up in the darkness. He is merciful and compassionate and just.

5 Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in judicio:

Pleasing is the man who shows mercy and lends. He will order his words with judgment.

6 quia in æternum non commovebitur.

For he will not be disturbed in eternity.

7 In memoria æterna erit justus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino,

8 confirmatum est cor ejus; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos.

His heart has been confirmed. He will not be disturbed, until he looks down upon his enemies.

9 Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi: cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.

He has distributed, he has given to the poor. His justice shall remain from age to age. His horn shall be exalted in glory.

10 Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit.

The sinner will see and become angry. He will gnash his teeth and waste away. The desire of sinners will perish.
