Psalms 37:22

Grace

20 But the wicked and enemies of the LORD will perish like the glory of the fields. They will vanish; like smoke they will fade away.

21 The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous are gracious and giving.

Surely those He blesses will inherit the land, but the cursed will be destroyed.

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.
