[1] Praise Yah!ⓘ
Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh,
who delights greatly in his commandments.
[2] His offspring 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 Yahweh.
[8] His heart is established.
He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.
[9] He has dispersed, he has given to the poor.
His righteousness endures forever.
His horn will be exalted with honor.
[10] The wicked will see it, and be grieved.
He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away.
The desire of the wicked will perish.
