Psalm 112:9-10
New Catholic Bible

9 He bestows gifts lavishly on the poor;
    his righteousness will endure forever,
    and his horn[a] will be exalted in glory.
10 The wicked will be furious when he sees this,
    gnashing his teeth and pining away;
    the desires of the wicked will be fruitless.[b]

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 112:9 As God’s name is held in holy awe (see Ps 111:9), so the righteous will be held in honor. Paul uses this verse to support the principle that “if you sow generously, you will reap generously as well” (2 Cor 9:6, 9). Horn: here symbolizes dignity.
  2. Psalm 112:10 The only alternative way of life to that of the righteous is bitter, transient, and futile.
