He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 112 of Psalms. Psalm 112, also acrostic, describes the characteristics of the righteous person who fears the Lord. His stability is not limited to economic prosperity: it includes generosity, justice, compassion, and confidence in the face of bad news. The righteous person’s wealth is presented in connection with a willingness to share, in contrast to the wicked person’s desire to accumulate. The psalm ends by showing that the inner orientation of both groups produces opposite destinies.

Er streut aus und gibt den Armen; seine Gerechtigkeit bleibt ewiglich, sein Horn wird erhöht mit Ehren.
Esparce, da a los pobres: Su justicia permanece para siempre; Su cuerno será ensalzado en gloria.
Reparte y da a los necesitados; su justicia permanece para siempre, y su poder será levantado con honor.
Il fait des largesses, il donne aux indigents; Sa justice subsiste à jamais; Sa tête s'élève avec gloire,
Egli ha sparso, egli ha donato a’ bisognosi; La sua giustizia dimora in perpetuo, Il suo corno sarà alzato in gloria.
Ele espalhou, deu aos necessitados; a sua justiça permanece para sempre, e a sua força se exaltará em glória.
他施捨,賙濟貧窮, 他的義行存到永遠, 他的角必被高舉,大有榮耀。
