Alleluia. Blessed is the man that fears the Lord: he will delight greatly in his commandments.
His seed shall be mighty in the earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Glory and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endures for evermore.
To the upright light has sprung up in darkness: he is pitiful, and merciful, and righteous.
The good man is he that pities and lends: he will direct his affairs with judgment.
For he shall not be moved for ever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
He shall not be afraid of [any] evil report: his heart is ready to trust in the Lord.
His heart is established, he shall not fear, till he shall see [his desire] upon his enemies.
He has dispersed abroad; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for evermore: his horn shall be exalted with honour.
The sinner shall see and be angry, he shall gnash his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the sinner shall perish.
