1 alleluia reversionis Aggei et Zacchariae beatus vir qui timet Dominum in mandatis eius volet nimis

Praise all of you the LORD. Blessed is the man that fears the LORD, that delights greatly in his commandments.

2 potens in terra erit semen eius generatio rectorum benedicetur

His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 gloria et divitiae in domo eius et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi

Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endures for ever.

4 exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis misericors et miserator et iustus

Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

5 iucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat disponet sermones suos in iudicio

A good man shows favour, and lends: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

6 quia in aeternum non commovebitur

Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

7 in memoria aeterna erit iustus ab auditione mala non timebit paratum cor eius sperare in Domino

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

8 confirmatum est cor eius non commovebitur donec dispiciat inimicos suos

His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

9 dispersit dedit pauperibus iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria

He has dispersed, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

10 peccator videbit et irascetur dentibus suis fremet et tabescet desiderium peccatorum peribit

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