Psalms 37:16-21

¹⁶Better is a little thing to a just or rightwise man; than many riches of sinners.

¹⁷For the arms of sinners shall be all-broken; but the Lord confirmeth just or rightwise men.

¹⁸The Lord knoweth the days of the unwemmed; and their heritage shall be without end.

¹⁹They shall not be shamed in the evil time, and they shall be ful filled in the days of hunger;

²⁰for sinners shall perish. Forsooth anon as the enemies of the Lord be honoured, and enhanced; they failing shall fail as smoke.

²¹A sinner shall borrow, and shall not pay back; but a just or rightwise man hath mercy, and shall give.
