Salmos 37:21 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 37:21

The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again
While the wicked live, they are scandalous; they live by borrowing, which was always reckoned mean; see ( Deuteronomy 28:12 Deuteronomy 28:44 ) ( Proverbs 22:7 ) ; and what is worse, as they borrow, they do not design to repay; they take no care nor thought about that, but live upon what they borrow: for this either expresses their incapacity that they cannot pay; or the evil disposition of their mind, which rather seems to be the sense, that they will not pay;

but the righteous showeth mercy, and giveth;
which not only argues capacity and ability, but a kind, merciful, and tender spirit to persons in distress, and is expressive of a generous action.

20 Mas os ímpios perecerão;os inimigos do SENHOR murcharão como a beleza dos campos;desvanecerão como fumaça.

21 Os ímpios tomam emprestado e não devolvem,mas os justos dão com generosidade;

22 aqueles que o SENHOR abençoa receberão a terra por herança,mas os que ele amaldiçoa serão eliminados.

23 O SENHOR firma os passos de um homem,quando a conduta deste o agrada;
