Psalm 37:22-28
Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 Those who are blessed by Him will inherit the land,[a]
but those cursed by Him will be destroyed.(A)
23 A man’s steps are established by the Lord,
and He takes pleasure in his way.(B)
24 Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed,
because the Lord holds his hand.[b](C)
25 I have been young and now I am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous abandoned
or his children begging for bread.(D)
26 He is always generous, always lending,
and his children are a blessing.(E)
27 Turn away from evil and do what is good,
and dwell there[c] forever.(F)
28 For the Lord loves justice
and will not abandon His faithful ones.(G)
They are kept safe forever,
but the children of the wicked will be destroyed.(H)
