endureth for ever. |

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

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. |

9: He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his
righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
|
|
10: The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with
his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. |
