Psalms 37:23

Guidance and decisionsGod's will and callingGod's faithfulnessJoy

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

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

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.

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