¹² For Thou blessest the righteous, O Jehovah, As a buckler with favour dost compass him!

¹⁰ Many `are' the pains of the wicked; As to him who is trusting in Jehovah, Kindness doth compass him.

¹¹ For a sun and a shield `is' Jehovah God, Grace and honour doth Jehovah give. He withholdeth not good To those walking in uprightness.

¹¹ Jehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth His people with peace!

⁷ Thou `art' a hiding-place for me, From distress Thou dost keep me, `With' songs of deliverance dost compass me. Selah.

¹³ He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.

¹ O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;

² But -- in the law of Jehovah `is' his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:

³ And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

³ And Thou, O Jehovah, `art' a shield for me, My honour, and lifter up of my head.

⁸ Of Jehovah `is' this salvation; On Thy people `is' Thy blessing! Selah.

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