1Praise the LORD! How joyful are those who fear the LORDand delight in obeying his commands.

2Their children will be successful everywhere;an entire generation of godly people will be blessed.

3They themselves will be wealthy,and their good deeds will last forever.

4Light shines in the darkness for the godly.They are generous, compassionate, and righteous.

5Good comes to those who lend money generouslyand conduct their business fairly.

6Such people will not be overcome by evil.Those who are righteous will be long remembered.

7They do not fear bad news;they confidently trust the LORD to care for them.

8They are confident and fearlessand can face their foes triumphantly.

9They share freely and give generously to those in need.Their good deeds will be remembered forever.They will have influence and honor.
