Psalms 37:24-29 Common English Bible (CEB)

24. Though they trip up, they won’t be thrown down,because the Lord holds their hand.

25. I was young and now I’m old,but I have never seen the righteous left all alone,have never seen their children begging for bread.

26. They are always gracious and generous.Their children are a blessing.

27. Turn away from evil! Do good!Then you will live in the land forever.

28. The Lord loves justice.He will never leave his faithful all alone.They are guarded forever,but the children of the wicked are eliminated.

29. The righteous will possess the land;they will live on it forever.
