²   Their descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. 
³   Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever. 
⁴   They rise in the darkness as a light for the upright; they are gracious, merciful, and righteous. 
⁵   It is well with those who deal generously and lend, who conduct their affairs with justice. 
⁶   For the righteous will never be moved; they will be remembered forever. 
⁷   They are not afraid of evil tidings; their hearts are firm, secure in the LORD. 
⁸   Their hearts are steady, they will not be afraid; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes. 
⁹   They have distributed freely, they have given to the poor; their righteousness endures forever; their horn is exalted in honor. 
¹⁰  The wicked see it and are angry; they gnash their teeth and melt away; the desire of the wicked comes to nothing.
