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

And dwell forevermore.

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.

Nor condemn him when he is judged.

And keep His way,
And He shall exalt you to inherit the land;
When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. 
35 I have seen the wicked in great power,
And spreading himself like a native green tree.
36 Yet1 he passed away, and behold, he was no more;
Indeed I sought him, but he could not be found. 
37 Mark the blameless man, and observe the upright;
For the future of that man is peace.
38 aBut the transgressors shall be destroyed together;
The future of the wicked shall be cut off. 
39 But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
He is their strength ain the time of trouble. 
40 And athe Lord shall help them and deliver them;
He shall deliver them from the wicked,
And save them,
bBecause they trust in Him.
