Psalms

They will gnash their teeth and melt away

112:1-10

¹ Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

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

Praise God.

Whoever fears him is blessed. [1]

Delight in his commandments.

³Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

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

⁵ A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

If you fear and obey God, you'll be rich. [2]

⁶ Surely he shall not be moved for ever: 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 his desire upon his enemies.

Righteous people will never be forgotten. [3]

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

The horn of the righteous will be exalted.

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

When the wicked see it,

they will gnash their teeth and melt away.

Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD. (v.1)
Should we fear God?
Wealth and riches shall be in his house. (v.3)
Is it good to be wealthy?
The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. (v.6)
Has there ever been a righteous person?
