Psalms 37:24-37

²⁴Though he fall, hee shall not be cast off: for the Lord putteth vnder his hand.

²⁵I haue beene yong, and am olde: yet I sawe neuer the righteous forsaken, nor his seede begging bread.

²⁶But hee is euer mercifull and lendeth, and his seede enioyeth the blessing.

²⁷Flee from euill and doe good, and dwell for euer.

²⁸For the Lord loueth iudgement, and forsaketh not his Saintes: they shall be preserued for euermore: but the seede of the wicked shall be cut off.

²⁹The righteous men shall inherit the lande, and dwell therein for euer.

³⁰The mouth of the righteous will speake of wisedome, and his tongue will talke of iudgement.

³¹For the Lawe of his God is in his heart, and his steppes shall not slide.

³²The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.

³³But the Lord wil not leaue him in his hand, nor condemne him, when he is iudged.

³⁴Waite thou on the Lord, and keepe his way, and he shall exalt thee, that thou shalt inherite the lande: when the wicked men shall perish, thou shalt see.

³⁵I haue seene the wicked strong, and spreading himselfe like a greene bay tree.

³⁶Yet he passed away, and loe, he was gone, and I sought him, but he could not be founde.

³⁷Marke the vpright man, and beholde the iust: for the end of that man is peace.
