21. The wicked borrow and do not repay,but the righteous give generously;
22. those the Lord blesses will inherit the land,but those he curses will be destroyed.
23. The Lord makes firm the stepsof the one who delights in him;
24. though he may stumble, he will not fall,for the Lord upholds him with his hand.
25. I was young and now I am old,yet I have never seen the righteous forsakenor their children begging bread.
26. They are always generous and lend freely;their children will be a blessing.
27. Turn from evil and do good;then you will dwell in the land for ever.
28. For the Lord loves the justand will not forsake his faithful ones.Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed;the offspring of the wicked will perish.
29. The righteous will inherit the landand dwell in it for ever.
