23 A good man's footsteps by the Lordare ordered aright;And in the way wherein he walkshe greatly doth delight.

25 I have been young, and now am old,yet have I never seenThe just man left, nor that his seedfor bread have beggars been.
26 He's ever merciful, and lends:his seed is bless'd therefore.
27 Depart from evil, and do good,and dwell for evermore.
28 For God loves judgment, and his saintsleaves not in any case;They are kept ever: but cut offshall be the sinner's race.
29 The just inherit shall the land,and ever in it dwell:
