The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again; But the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.

For such as are blessed of him shall inherit the land; And they that are cursed of him shall be cut off.

A man’s goings are established of Jehovah; And he delighteth in his way.

Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For Jehovah upholdeth him with his hand.

I have been young, and now am old; Yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread.

All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; And his seed is blessed.

Depart from evil, and do good; And dwell for evermore.
