22Those whom Yahweh has blessed will live safely in the land that he has given to them, but he will get rid of those people whom he has cursed.
23Yahweh protects those who do what is pleasing to him, and he will enable them to walk confidently, wherever they go;
24even if they stumble, they will not fall down, because Yahweh holds them by his hand.
25I was young previously, and now I am an old man, but in all those years, I have never seen righteous/godly people being abandoned by Yahweh, nor have I seen that their children needed to beg for food.
26Righteous/Godly people are generous, and happily lend money to others, and their children are a blessing to them.
27Turn away from doing evil, and do what is good. If you do that, you and your descendants will live in your land forever.
28That will happen because Yahweh likes to see people doing what is just, and he will never forsake righteous/godly people. He will protect them forever; but he will get rid of the children of wicked people.
29Righteous/Godly people will own the land that Yahweh promised to give to them, and they will live there forever.
30Righteous people give wise advice to others, and they MTY say what is just/fair.
31They continually think about God's laws; they do not stray from God's path.
32Those who are evil wait in ambush for righteous people in order to kill them as they walk by.
33But Yahweh will not abandon righteous people, and allow ◄them to fall into their enemies' hands/their enemies harm them►. And he will not allow righteous people to be condemned when someone takes them to a judge to be put on trial.
34Be patient and trust that Yahweh will help you, and ◄walk on his paths/do what he wants you to do►. If you do that, he will honor you by giving you the land that he promised, and when he gets rid of the wicked, you will see it happen.
35I have seen that wicked people who ◄act like tyrants/terrify people► sometimes prosper, like trees that grow well in fertile soil,
