| 1 Praise the LORD! How blessed is the man who fears the LORD, Who greatly delights in His commandments. | 1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments. | 1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the person who fears the LORD and is happy to obey his commands. | 1 Praise Yah! Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments. | 1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments. | 2 His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. | 2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed. | 2 His descendants will grow strong on the earth. The family of a decent person will be blessed. | 2 His seed will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed. | 2 His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed. | 3 Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever. | 3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever. | 3 Wealth and riches will be in his home. His righteousness continues forever. | 3 Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever. | 3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever. | 4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous. | 4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. | 4 Light will shine in the dark for a decent person. He is merciful, compassionate, and fair. | 4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous. | 4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous. | 5 It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; He will maintain his cause in judgment. | 5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion. | 5 All goes well for the person who is generous and lends willingly. He earns an honest living. | 5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment. | 5 It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 6 For he will never be shaken; The righteous will be remembered forever. | 6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. | 6 He will never fail. A righteous person will always be remembered. | 6 For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever. | 6 For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. | 7 He will not fear evil tidings; His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD. | 7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. | 7 He is not afraid of bad news. His heart remains secure, full of confidence in the LORD. | 7 He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Yahweh. | 7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah; | 8 His heart is upheld, he will not fear, Until he looks with satisfaction on his adversaries. | 8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies. | 8 His heart is steady, and he is not afraid. In the end he will look triumphantly at his enemies. | 8 His heart is established. He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries. | 8 His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see his desire upon his oppressors. | 9 He has given freely to the poor, His righteousness endures forever; His horn will be exalted in honor. | 9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour. | 9 He gives freely to poor people. His righteousness continues forever. His head is raised in honor. | 9 He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor. | 9 He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour. | 10 The wicked will see it and be vexed, He will gnash his teeth and melt away; The desire of the wicked will perish. | 10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. | 10 The wicked person sees this and becomes angry. He angrily grits his teeth and disappears. The hope that wicked people have will vanish. | 10 The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish. | 10 The wicked man shall see it and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. |
