24 When he falls, he will not be thrown down headfirstbecause the Lord holds on to his hand.
25 I have been young, and now I am old,but I have never seen a righteous person abandonedor his descendants begging for food.
26 He is always generous and lends freely.His descendants are a blessing.
27 Avoid evil, do good, and live forever.
28 The Lord loves justice,and he will not abandon his godly ones.They will be kept safe forever,but the descendants of wicked people will be cut off.
29 Righteous people will inherit the landand live there permanently.
30 The mouth of the righteous person reflects on wisdom.His tongue speaks what is fair.
