22
For
such as be
blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and
they that be
cursed of him shall
be cut off.
23
The steps of a
good
man are ordered by the L
ORD
: and he delighteth in his way.
24
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the L
ORD
upholdeth
him with
his
hand.
25
I have been young, and
now
am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his
seed begging bread.
26
He is
ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed
is
blessed.
27
Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
28
For the L
ORD
loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever:
but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
29
The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
30
The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
31
The law of his God
is
in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
32
The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
33
The L
ORD
will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34
Wait on the L
ORD
, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the
wicked are cut off, thou shalt see
it.
35
I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
36
Yet he passed away, and, lo, he
was
not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37
Mark the perfect
man,
and behold the upright: for the end of
that
man
is
peace.
38
But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
39
But the salvation of the righteous
is
of the L
ORD
:
he is
their strength in the time of trouble.
40
And the L
ORD
shall help them and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked,
and save them, because they trust in him.
CHAPTER 38
O L
ORD
, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2
For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
3
There is
no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither
is there any
rest in my
bones because of my sin.
4
For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for
me.
5
My wounds stink
and
are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6
I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7
For my loins are filled with a loathsome
disease:
and
there is
no soundness in my flesh.
