​ ¹Praise the LORD!
 Happy are those who fear the LORD,
 who greatly delight in his commandments.
 ²Their descendants will be mighty in the land;
 the generation of the upright will be blessed.
 ³Wealth and riches are in their houses,
 and their righteousness endures forever.
 ⁴They rise in the darkness as a light for the upright;
 they are gracious, merciful, and righteous.
 ⁵It is well with those who deal generously and lend,
 who conduct their affairs with justice.
 ⁶For the righteous will never be moved;
 they will be remembered forever.
 ⁷They are not afraid of evil tidings;
 their hearts are firm, secure in the LORD.
 ⁸Their hearts are steady, they will not be afraid;
 in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.
 ⁹They have distributed freely, they have given to the poor;
 their righteousness endures forever;
 their horn is exalted in honor.
 ¹⁰The wicked see it and are angry;
 they gnash their teeth and melt away;
 the desire of the wicked comes to nothing.
