Psalm 37:23-29
New King James Version
23 (A)The steps of a good man are [a]ordered by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.
24 (B)Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down;
For the Lord upholds him with His hand.
25 I have been young, and now am old;
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Nor his descendants begging bread.
26 (C)He is [b]ever merciful, and lends;
And his descendants are blessed.
27 Depart from evil, and do good;
And dwell forevermore.
28 For the Lord loves justice,
And does not forsake His saints;
They are preserved forever,
But the descendants of the wicked shall be cut off.
29 (D)The righteous shall inherit the land,
And dwell in it forever.
