   Godliness hath the promises of this life, and of the life to come.
   1 Praise ye the Lord, Blessed is the man who feareth the Lord, and delighteth greatly in his commandments.
   
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
   
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endureth for ever.
   
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
   
5 A good man showeth favor, and lendeth; he will guide his affairs with discretion.
   
6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
   
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.
   
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see judgment executed upon his enemies.
   
9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.
   
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.
