Psalms 37:18-26

¹⁸Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever.

¹⁹They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

²⁰But the wicked shall perish, And the enemies of Jehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: They shall consume; in smoke shall they consume away.

²¹The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again; But the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.

²²For such as are blessed of him shall inherit the land; And they that are cursed of him shall be cut off.

²³A man’s goings are established of Jehovah; And he delighteth in his way.

²⁴Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For Jehovah upholdeth him with his hand.

²⁵I have been young, and now am old; Yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread.

²⁶All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; And his seed is blessed.
