Psalms 37:27 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 37:27

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

26 ^aHe is¹ ever merciful, and lends;
And his descendants are blessed.

27 Depart from evil, and do good;
And dwell forevermore.

28 For the Lord loves justice,
And does not forsake His saints;
They are preserved forever,
But the descendants of the wicked shall be cut off.

29 ^aThe righteous shall inherit the land,
And dwell in it forever.

30 ^aThe mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom,
And his tongue talks of justice.

31 The law of his God is in his heart;
None of his steps shall¹ slide.

32 The wicked ^awatches the righteous,
And seeks to slay him.

33 The Lord ^awill not leave him in his hand,
Nor condemn him when he is judged.
