Prosperity of the One Who Fears the LORD.

1 Praise the LORD!  How blessed is the man who fears the LORD,  Who greatly delights in His commandments.
2 His descendants will be mighty on earth;  The generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house,  And his righteousness endures forever.
4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright;  He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.
5 It is well with the man who is gracious 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 fear evil tidings;  His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is upheld, he will not fear,  Until he looks with satisfaction on his adversaries.
9 He has given freely to the poor,  His righteousness endures forever;  His horn will be exalted in honor.
10 The wicked will see it and be vexed,  He will gnash his teeth and melt away;  The desire of the wicked will perish.
