English text
1. The man is blest that God doth fear,
And that His laws do love indeed.
His seed on earth God will uprear,
And bless such as from him proceed.
His house with good He will fulfill,
His righteousness endure shall still.
2. Unto the righteous doth arise,
In troubles joy, in darkness light:
Compassion always in his eyes,
And mercy always in his sight:
Yea, pity moveth such to lend,
He doth by judgment things expend.
3. And surely such shall never fail,
For in remembrance had is he:
No tidings ill can make him quail,
Who in the Lord sure hope doth see:
His heart is firm, his fear is past,
For he shall see his foes down cast.
4. He did well for the poor provide,
His righteousness shall still remain:
And his estate with praise abide,
Though that the wicked man disdain:
Yea, gnash his teeth thereat shall he.
And so consume his state to see.
