Psalms 112:4

HopeDiscouragement and depressionGraceMercy and compassion

2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

5 It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.

6 Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.
