[1] <Prayse ye the Lorde.> Blessed is the man that feareth God: he hath great delight in his commaundementes
[2] His seede shalbe mightie vpon the earth: the generation of them that dwell vprightly, shalbe blessed
[3] Riches and plenteousnes shalbe in his house: and his righteousnes endureth for euer
[4] There ariseth vp light in the darknes: vnto them that deale vprightly he is merciful, and louing, and righteous
[5] A good man is mercyfull and lendeth: he wyll guyde his wordes with discretion
[6] For he shalbe neuer moued: and the righteous shall be had in an euerlasting remembraunce
[7] He wyll not be afraide of any euyll tidinges: his heart is setled, he beleueth in God
[8] His heart is strengthened, he will not feare: vntyll he seeth [a mischiefe to fall] vpon his enemies
[9] He hath distributed abrode, he hath geuen to the poore: his righteousnes remayneth for euer, his horne shalbe exalted with glory
[10] The vngodly shall see it, and it wyll greeue hym, he wyll gnashe with his teethe and consume away: the desire of the vngodly shall perishe
