CHAP. CXII.
1 Godlinesse hath the promises of this life, 4 And of the life to come. 10 The prosperitie of the godly, shalbe an eye-sore to the wicked
1 Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, that delighteth greatly in his Commaundements.1
2 His seed shall bee mightie vpon earth: the generation of the vpright shalbe blessed.
3 Wealth and riches shalbe in his house: and his righteousnesse endureth for euer.
5 A good man sheweth fauour and lendeth: he will guide his affaires with discretion.5
6 Surely he shall not be moued for euer: the righteous shalbe in euerlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of euill tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is established, hee shall not be afraid, vntill he see his desire vpon his enemies.
9 He hath dispersed, he hath giuen to the poore: his righteousnesse endureth for euer; his horne shalbe exalted with honour.9
