Psalms 112
The man who fears the Lord and follows His commandments will be blessed with a powerful offspring, wealth, and eternal justice. He will be merciful, compassionate, and just, and his heart will be prepared to hope in the Lord. The just one will not fear disasters and will be an everlasting memorial, while the sinner will become angry and waste away. The desire of sinners will ultimately perish.
