Psalms 112:2-10

2 His 1offspring will be mighty in the land; 2the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 3Wealth and riches are in his house, and his 4righteousness endures forever.
4 Light dawns in the darkness 5for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and 6righteous.
5 It is well with the man who 7deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will 8never be moved; 9he will be remembered forever.
7 He is not 10afraid of bad news; his 11heart is firm, 12trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has 13distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his 14horn is exalted in honor.
10 The wicked man sees it and is angry; he 15gnashes his teeth and 16melts away; 17the desire of the wicked will perish!
