Wesley's Explanatory Notes
Psalms 112
Righteousness - The fruit or reward of his righteousness, which is God's blessing upon his estate.
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.
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.
The desire - Either of the misery of good men; or of his own constant prosperity.
