Teeth a-Gnash

In anger and with gnashing teeth 

the wicked see the righteous;  

who rise in darkness as a light 

and shine with radiant brightness; 

who deal with generosity 

and always act with justice; 

who fear no evil, freely lend, 

and always can be trusted. 

—–

The righteous go from strength to strength 

in steady onward progress; 

In God’s commandments find delight 

and to the poor give access. 

Their offspring will be mighty in 

the land and know its blessing.

The reputation of their lives 

will leave nobody guessing.
