New International Version (NIV)

4Blessed is the one

who trusts in the Lord,

who does not look to the proud,

to those who turn aside to false gods.

4¶How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust,

And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who become involved in falsehood.

4¶Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who makes the Lord his trust,

And does not regard the proud nor those who lapse into lies.

4Blessed is the man

who has made the Lord his trust,

who has not turned to the proud,

nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

4Blessed is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust,

And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

4Blessed is the man that maketh the Lord his trust, and regardeth not the proude, nor such as turne aside to lyes.

4Blessed is the man who makes Yahweh his trust,

and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.

4Blessed is the person

who trusts in the Lord.

They don’t trust in proud people.

Those proud people worship statues of gods.

4If anyone trusts in the Lord

he blesses them!

They do not ask proud people to help them.

They do not join with those people who worship false gods.

4O the blessedness of the man || Who has made YHWH his trust, || And has not turned to the proud, || And those turning aside to lies.
