The Blessed Fear of the LORD

Psalm 128:1–6

1Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.+ 2His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.+ 3Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.+ 4Light dawns in the darkness for the upright — for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.+ 5It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.+ 6Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.+ 7He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.+ 8His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.+ 9He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.+ 10The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.+
