Psalm 37:23-31

New International Version

²³ The Lord makes firm the steps^(A)
    of the one who delights^(B) in him;
²⁴ though he may stumble, he will not fall,^(C)
    for the Lord upholds^(D) him with his hand.

²⁵ I was young and now I am old,
    yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken^(E)
    or their children begging^(F) bread.
²⁶ They are always generous and lend freely;^(G)
    their children will be a blessing.^[a](H)

²⁷ Turn from evil and do good;^(I)
    then you will dwell in the land forever.^(J)
28 For the Lord loves the just
    and will not forsake his faithful ones.^(K)

Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed^[b];
    the offspring of the wicked will perish.^(L)
29 The righteous will inherit the land^(M)
    and dwell in it forever.^(N)

³⁰ The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,^(O)
    and their tongues speak what is just.
³¹ The law of their God is in their hearts;^(P)
    their feet do not slip.^(Q)
