Opening the chapter…
Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] O the blessedness of one fearing YHWH, || He has greatly delighted in His commands.
His seed is mighty in the earth, || The generation of the upright is blessed.
Wealth and riches [are] in his house, || And his righteousness is standing forever.
Light has risen in darkness to the upright, || Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.
The man—good, gracious, and lending, || He sustains his matters in judgment.
For he is not moved for all time; For the righteous is a continuous memorial.
He is not afraid of an evil report, || His heart is prepared [and] confident in YHWH.
His heart is sustained—he does not fear, || Until he looks on his adversaries.
He has scattered—has given to the needy, || His righteousness is standing forever, || His horn is exalted with glory.
The wicked sees, and has been angry, || He gnashes his teeth, and has melted, || The desire of the wicked perishes!
