Psalm 112:5-9

2. Psalm 112:5-9 (NKJV)
5 A good man deals graciously and lends;          He will guide his affairs with discretion. 6 Surely he will never be shaken;          The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance. 7 He will not be afraid of evil tidings;          His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD. 8 His heart is established;          He will not be afraid,          Until he sees his desire upon his enemies.          9 He has dispersed abroad,          He has given to the poor;          His righteousness endures forever;          His horn will be exalted with honor.
