Prayse ye the Lorde. Blessed is the man that feareth God: he hath great delight in his commaundementes.

His seede shalbe mightie vpon the earth: the generation of them that dwell vprightly, shalbe blessed.

Riches and plenteousnes shalbe in his house: and his righteousnes endureth for euer.

There ariseth vp light in the darknes: vnto them that deale vprightly he is merciful, and louing, and righteous.

A good man is mercyfull and lendeth: he wyll guyde his wordes with discretion.

For he shalbe neuer moued: and the righteous shall be had in an euerlasting remembraunce.

He wyll not be afraide of any euyll tidinges: his heart is setled, he beleueth in God.

His heart is strengthened, he will not feare: vntyll he seeth a mischiefe to fall vpon his enemies.

He hath distributed abrode, he hath geuen to the poore: his righteousnes remayneth for euer, his horne shalbe exalted with glory.

The vngodly shall see it, and it wyll greeue hym, he wyll gnashe with his teethe and consume away: the desire of the vngodly shall perishe.
