Potens in terra erit semen ejus: * generatio rectorum benedicetur.
(His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.)
Gloria et divitiæ in domo ejus: * et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi.
(Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth forever and ever.)
Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: * misericors, et miserator, et justus.
(To the righteous a light has sprung up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate, and just.)
Jucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat, disponet sermones suos in judicio: * quia in æternum non commovebitur.
(Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth; he shall order his words with judgment: because he shall not be moved forever.)
In memoria æterna erit justus: * ab auditione mala non timebit.
(The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not fear the evil hearing.)
