Psalms 37:23-29

23The Lord grants success to the one whose behavior he finds commendable.

24Even if he trips, he will not fall headlong, for the Lord holds his hand.

25I was once young, now I am old. I have never seen a godly man abandoned, or his children forced to search for food.

26All day long he shows compassion and lends to others, and his children are blessed.

27Turn away from evil! Do what is right! Then you will enjoy lasting security.

28For the Lord promotes justice, and never abandons his faithful followers. They are permanently secure, but the children of evil men are wiped out.

29The godly will possess the land and will dwell in it permanently.
