24
Even if he has a fall he will not be without help: for the hand of the Lord is supporting him.
25
I have been young, and now am old, but I have not seen the good man without help, or his children looking for bread.
26
All the day he is ready to have mercy and to give; his children are a blessing.
27
Be turned from evil, and do good; and your place will be for ever.
28
For the Lord is a lover of righteousness, and takes care of his saints; they will be kept safe for ever; but the seed of the evil-doers will be cut off.
29
The upright will have the earth for their heritage, and will go on living there for ever.
30
The mouth of the good man says words of wisdom; the talk of his tongue is of righteousness.
31
The law of his God is in his heart; he will never make a false step.
32
The sinners are watching the upright man, desiring to put him to death.
33
The Lord will not give him into their hands, or be against him when he is judged.
34
Be waiting for the Lord, and keep his way; and you will be lifted up, and have the land for your heritage: when the evil-doers are cut off, you will see it.
