25. Neither in my youth, nor now in old agehave I seen the righteous one abandonedor his offspring begging for bread.
26. All day long he is gracious and lends,and his offspring become a blessing.
27. Turn from evil and do good,that you may be settled forever.
28. For the Lord loves justiceand does not abandon the faithful.When the unjust are destroyed,and the offspring of the wicked cut off,
29. The righteous will inherit the earthand dwell in it forever.
