Praise ye the Lord. The man is bless�d
that fears the Lord aright,
He who in his commandements
doth greatly take delight.
His seed and offspring powerful
shall be the earth upon:
Of upright men blessed shall be
the generation.
Riches and wealth shall ever be
within his house in store;
And his unspotted righteousness
endures for evermore.
Unto the upright light doth rise,
though he in darkness be:
Compassionate, and merciful,
and righteous, is he.
A good man doth his favour shew,
and doth to others lend:
He with discretion his affairs
will guide unto the end.
Surely there is not any thing
that ever shall him move:
The righteous man�s memorial
shall everlasting prove.
When he shall evil tidings hear,
he shall not be afraid:
His heart is fix�d, his confidence
upon the Lord is stay�d.
His heart is firmly stablished,
afraid he shall not be,
Until upon his enemies
he his desire shall see.
He hath dispers�d, giv�n to the poor;
his righteousness shall be
To ages all; with honour shall
his horn be raised high.
The wicked shall it see, and fret,
his teeth gnash, melt away:
What wicked men do most desire
shall utterly decay.
