Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah!
Blessed is the man who reveres him
And takes delight in his commandments.
His descendants will have earthly success;
An upright generation will be blest.
His family will have wealth and riches.
Light will dawn in the darkness for the godly,
For the gracious, the merciful and righteous.
Good will befall the open-handed man
Who lends freely and is just in his dealings.
Surely such men will never be brought down.
The righteous man will always be remembered.
He is not afraid of evil tidings.
His heart is steadfast, trusting in Jehovah.
His heart is secure. He will know no fear
Until he sees his triumph over his foes.
He dispenses charity to the poor.
His righteousness will endure forever.
His reputation will be exalted.
The wicked man will see this and be outraged.
He will gnash his teeth, consumed by despair,
For the wants of the wicked will come to naught.
