1Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

1Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.

1Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, That delighteth greatly in his commandments.

2 His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

2Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.

2His seed shall be mighty upon earth: The generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever.

3From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.

3Wealth and riches are in his house; And his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

4The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.

4Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: He isgracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

5Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:

5Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; He shall maintain his cause in judgment.

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

6and looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?

6For he shall never be moved; The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah;

7Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:

7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah.

8 His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his oppressors.

8That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.

8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, Until he seehis desireupon his adversaries.

9 He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

9Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.

9He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever: His horn shall be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked [man] shall see [it] and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

10(not in this translation)

10The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: The desire of the wicked shall perish.
