Psalms 112 · John Wesley
The fear - True religion. Beginning - Is the only foundation of, and introduction to, true wisdom.
Righteousness - The fruit or reward of his righteousness, which is God's blessing upon his estate.
Darkness - In the troubles and calamities of life. He - The upright man.
Lendeth - Gives freely to some, and lends to others according to the variety of their conditions. Affairs - His domestick affairs. Discretion - Not getting his estate unjustly, nor casting it away prodigally, nor yet withholding it from such as need it.
Moved - Though he may for a season be afflicted, yet he shall not be eternally destroyed.
Evil tidings - At the report of approaching calamities.
Dispersed - His goods, freely and liberally. Righteousness - His liberality, or the reward of it. Ever - What he gives is not lost, but indeed is the only part of his estate, which will abide with him to all eternity.
