The Righteous Will Never Be Moved
aPraise the Lord!
bBlessed is the man who fears the Lord,
who cgreatly delights in his commandments!
2 His aoffspring will be mighty in the land;
bthe generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 aWealth and riches are in his house,
and his brighteousness endures forever.
4 Light dawns in the darkness afor the upright;
he is gracious, merciful, and brighteous.
5 It is well with the man who adeals generously and lends;
who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will anever be moved;
bhe will be remembered forever.
7 He is not aafraid of bad news;
his bheart is firm, ctrusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is steady; he will not be afraid,
until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has adistributed freely; he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever;
his bhorn is exalted in honor.
10 The wicked man sees it and is angry;
he agnashes his teeth and bmelts away;
cthe desire of the wicked will perish!
