Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
Who ^adelights greatly in His commandments.

The generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 ^aWealth and riches will be in his house,
And his righteousness¹ endures forever.

4 ^aUnto the upright there arises light in the darkness;
He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

He will guide his affairs ^bwith discretion.

6 Surely he will never be shaken;
^aThe righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.
