4 Unto the upright light doth rise,though he in darkness be:Compassionate, and merciful,and righteous, is he.
5 A good man doth his favour shew,and doth to others lend:He with discretion his affairswill guide unto the end.
6 Surely there is not any thingthat ever shall him move:The righteous man's memorialshall everlasting prove.
7 When he shall evil tidings hear,he shall not be afraid:His heart is fix'd, his confidenceupon the Lord is stay'd.
8 His heart is firmly stablished,afraid he shall not be,Until upon his enemieshe his desire shall see.
9 He hath dispers'd, giv'n to the poor;his righteousness shall beTo ages all; with honour shallhis horn be raised high.
10 The wicked shall it see, and fret,his teeth gnash, melt away:What wicked men do most desireshall utterly decay.
