NIV

BBE

1 Praise the LORD. Blessed are those who fear the LORD, who find great delight in his commands.
1 Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.
2 Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
2 His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.
3 Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever.
3 A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.
4 Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.
4 For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.
5 Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice.
5 All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.
6 Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.
6 He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.
7 They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
7 He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.
8 Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.
8 His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.
9 They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor, their righteousness endures forever; their horn will be lifted high in honor.
9 He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.
10 The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.
10 The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
