^(a)Praise ^(b)the Lord!
How ^(A)blessed is the man who ^(c)fears the Lord,
Who greatly ^(B)delights in His commandments.

^{Tools
2}

His ^(d)^(C)descendants will be mighty ^(e)on earth;
The generation of the ^(D)upright will be blessed.

^{Tools

^(E)Wealth and riches are in his house,
And his righteousness endures forever.

^{Tools

Light arises in the darkness ^(F)for the upright;
He is ^(G)gracious and compassionate and righteous.

^{Tools
5}

It is well with the man who ^(H)is gracious and lends;
He will ^(f)maintain his cause in judgment.

^{Tools
6}

For he will ^(I)never be shaken;
The ^(J)righteous will be ^(g)remembered forever.

^{Tools
7}

He will not fear ^(K)evil tidings;
His ^(L)heart is steadfast, ^(M)trusting in the Lord.

^{Tools
8}

His ^(N)heart is upheld, he ^(O)will not fear,
Until he ^(P)looks with satisfaction on his adversaries.

^{Tools
9}

^(h)He ^(Q)has given freely to the poor,
His righteousness endures forever;
His ^(R)horn will be exalted in honor.

^{Tools
10}

The ^(S)wicked will see it and be ⁽ⁱ⁾vexed,
He will ^(T)gnash his teeth and ^(U)melt away;
The ^(V)desire of the wicked will perish.
