| 1 | Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments. | Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments! | Praise the LORD. Blessed are those who fear the LORD, who find great delight in his commands. | |
| 2 | His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed. | His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. | Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. | |
| 3 | Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever. | Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. | Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever. | |
| 4 | To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just. | Light dawns in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and righteous. | Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous. | |
| 5 | Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment: | It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice. | Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice. | |
| 6 | because he shall not be moved for ever. | For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever. | Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever. | |
| 7 | The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord: | He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD. | They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD. | |
| 8 | his heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies. | His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries. | Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes. | |
| 9 | He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory. | He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn is exalted in honor. | They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor, their righteousness endures forever; their horn will be lifted high in honor. | |
| 10 | The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. | The wicked man sees it and is angry; he gnashes his teeth and melts away; the desire of the wicked will perish! | The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing. | |
