His
1offspring will be mighty in the land;
2the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3
3Wealth and riches are in his house, and his
4righteousness endures forever.
4
Light dawns in the darkness
5for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and
6righteous.
5
It is well with the man who
7deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice.
6
For the righteous will
8never be moved;
9he will be remembered forever.
7
He is not
10afraid of bad news; his
11heart is firm,
12trusting in the LORD.
8
His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9
He has
13distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his
14horn is exalted in honor.
10
The wicked man sees it and is angry; he
15gnashes his teeth and
16melts away;
17the desire of the wicked will perish!
