Psalm 112
1. Godliness has the promises of this life
4. And of the life to come
10. The prosperity of the godly shall be an eyesore to the wicked














(7) The story of Job, when the messengers of ill succeeded one another so fast, is an illustration of the truth of this verse. "A good conscience before God" is the best "armour against fate."

"Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful."--

SHAKESPERE: Measure for Measure.

Verse 7. - He shall not be afraid of evil tidings. Confident in God's goodness to wards him, he will not anticipate misfortunes. They may come, as even the best man is not exempt from them; but he will not meet them half-way. His heart is fixed; i.e. firmly established (see ver. 8) - settled on a sure basis - trusting in the Lord - the one basis that is solid and immovable.
