1Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.
2His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

6Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.
7He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.
