Psalms 112
Intro: Godliness hath the promises of this life, and of the life to come.

1 Praise ye the Lord, Blessed is the man who feareth the Lord, and delighteth greatly in his commandments.

2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endureth forever.

4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

5 A good man showeth favor, and lendeth; he will guide his affairs with discretion.

6 Surely he shall not be moved forever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.

8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see judgment executed upon his enemies.

9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth forever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.
