Context
Blessed is He who Fears the Lord

1Praise you the LORD. Blessed is the man that fears the LORD, that delights greatly in his commandments. 2His seed shall be mighty on earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed. 3Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endures for ever. 4To the upright there rises light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. 5A good man shows favor, and lends: he will guide his affairs with discretion. 6Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. 7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. 8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire on his enemies. 9He has dispersed, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor. 10The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
