Psalm 37:23-29

Easy-to-Read Version

²³ The Lord shows us how we should live,
    and he is pleased when he sees people living that way.
²⁴ If they stumble, they will not fall,
    because the Lord reaches out to steady them.
²⁵ I was young, and now I am old,
    but I have never seen good people left with no one to help them;
    I have never seen their children begging for food.
²⁶ They are kind and generous,
    and their children are a blessing.
²⁷ Stop doing anything evil and do good,
    and you will always have a place to live.
²⁸ The Lord loves what is right,
    and he will never leave his followers without help.
He will always protect them,
    but he will destroy the families of the wicked.
²⁹ Good people will get the land God promised
    and will live on it forever.
