24
though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD is the stay of his hand.
25
I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his children begging bread.
26
He is ever giving liberally and lending, and his children become a blessing.
27
Depart from evil, and do good; so shall you abide for ever.
28
For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. The righteous shall be preserved for ever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
29
The righteous shall possess the land, and dwell upon it for ever.
30
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.
31
The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not slip.
32
The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
33
The LORD will not abandon him to his power, or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.
34
Wait for the LORD, and keep to his way, and he will exalt you to possess the land; you will look on the destruction of the wicked.
