1 Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.

1 הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ׀ אַשְׁרֵי־אִ֭ישׁ יָרֵ֣א אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה בְּ֝מִצְוֹתָ֗יו חָפֵ֥ץ מְאֹֽד׃

2 Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.

2 גִּבֹּ֣ור בָּ֭אָרֶץ יִהְיֶ֣ה זַרְעֹ֑ו דֹּ֭ור יְשָׁרִ֣ים יְבֹרָֽךְ׃

3 Wealth and riches `are' in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.

3 הֹון־וָעֹ֥שֶׁר בְּבֵיתֹ֑ו וְ֝צִדְקָתֹ֗ו עֹמֶ֥דֶת לָעַֽד׃

4 Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

4 זָ֘רַ֤ח בַּחֹ֣שֶׁךְ אֹ֖ור לַיְשָׁרִ֑ים חַנּ֖וּן וְרַח֣וּם וְצַדִּֽיק׃

5 Good `is' the man -- gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.

5 טֹֽוב־אִ֭ישׁ חֹונֵ֣ן וּמַלְוֶ֑ה יְכַלְכֵּ֖ל דְּבָרָ֣יו בְּמִשְׁפָּֽט׃

6 For -- to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.

6 כִּֽי־לְעֹולָ֥ם לֹא־יִמֹּ֑וט לְזֵ֥כֶר עֹ֝ולָ֗ם יִהְיֶ֥ה צַדִּֽיק׃

7 Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.

7 מִשְּׁמוּעָ֣ה רָ֭עָה לֹ֣א יִירָ֑א נָכֹ֥ון לִ֝בֹּ֗ו בָּטֻ֥חַ בַּיהוָֽה׃

8 Sustained is his heart -- he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.

8 סָמ֣וּךְ לִ֭בֹּו לֹ֣א יִירָ֑א עַ֖ד אֲשֶׁר־יִרְאֶ֣ה בְצָרָֽיו׃

9 He hath scattered -- hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.

9 פִּזַּ֤ר׀ נָ֘תַ֤ן לָאֶבְיֹונִ֗ים צִ֭דְקָתֹו עֹמֶ֣דֶת לָעַ֑ד קַ֝רְנֹ֗ו תָּר֥וּם בְּכָבֹֽוד׃

10 The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!

10 רָ֘שָׁ֤ע יִרְאֶ֨ה׀ וְכָעָ֗ס שִׁנָּ֣יו יַחֲרֹ֣ק וְנָמָ֑ס תַּאֲוַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תֹּאבֵֽד׃
