Psalm 37:23-31

English Standard Version

²³ The ^(A)steps of a man are ^(B)established by the Lord,
    when he delights in his way;
^24 (C)though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,
    for the Lord ^(D)upholds his hand.

²⁵ I have been young, and now am old,
    yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
    or his children ^(E)begging for bread.
²⁶ He is ever ^(F)lending generously,
    and his children become a blessing.

^27 (G)Turn away from evil and do good;
    so shall you ^(H)dwell forever.
²⁸ For the Lord ^(I)loves justice;
    he will not forsake his ^(J)saints.
They are preserved forever,
    but the children of the wicked shall be ^(K)cut off.
²⁹ The righteous shall inherit the land
    and ^(L)dwell upon it forever.

³⁰ The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
    and his tongue speaks justice.
^31 (M)The law of his God is in his heart;
    his ^(N)steps do not slip.
