PSAL. CXII.
THe man is blest that God doth feare,And in his lawes doth much delight; [verse 2] Great shall his seed on earth appeare,Blest is the race of the upright. [verse 3] Riches and wealth his house shall fill,His righteousnesse endureth still.
[verse 4] In darknes light shines to th' upright,Who shines himselfe in graciousnesse;And in compassion doth delight,
And leads his life in righteousnesse: [verse 5] A good man lends wth good affection,And his affaires guides wth discretion.
[verse 6] For ever mov'd he shall not beStill lasts the memory of the just: [verse 7] Fearlesse of tidings ill is he,His fixed heart in God doth trust. [verse 8] His stedfast heart feares not at all,Untill he see his enemies fall.
[verse 9] Gifts to the poore disperst hath he,His righteousnesse shall ever live,His horne with honour rais'd shall be:The sinner shall this see, and grieve; [verse 10] And gnash his teeth, & melt, & quaile,The wicked mans desire shall faile.
