JPS Tanakh 1917 1Hallelujah. א Happy is the man that feareth the LORD, ב That delighteth greatly in His commandments.
ג 2His seed shall be mighty upon earth; ד The generation of the upright shall be blessed.
ה 3Wealth and riches are in his house; ו And his merit endureth for ever.
ז 4Unto the upright He shineth as a light in the darkness, ח Gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
ט 5Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth, י That ordereth his affairs rightfully.
כ 6For he shall never be moved; ל The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
מ 7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; נ His heart is stedfast, trusting in the LORD.
ס 8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, ע Until he gaze upon his adversaries.
פ 9He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy; צ His righteousness endureth for ever; ק His horn shall be exalted in honour.
ר 10The wicked shall see it, and be vexed; ש He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; ת The desire of the wicked shall perish. THE HOLY SCRIPTURES ACCORDING TO THE MASORETIC TEXT A NEW TRANSLATION |
