Psalms 37:25

²³ The steps of a man are ordered by the LORD who takes delight in his journey.

²⁴ Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed, for the LORD is holding his hand.

I once was young and now am old, yet never have I seen the righteous abandoned or their children begging for bread.

²⁶ They are ever generous and quick to lend, and their children are a blessing.

²⁷ Turn away from evil and do good, so that you will abide forever.
