18The LORD knows the days of the blameless,
and their inheritance will last forever.
19In the time of evil they will not be ashamed,
and in the days of famine they will be satisfied.
20But the wicked and enemies of the LORD
will perish like the glory of the fields.
They will vanish;
like smoke they will fade away.
21The wicked borrow and do not repay,
but the righteous are gracious and giving.
22Surely those He blesses will inherit the land,
but the cursed will be destroyed.
23The steps of a man are ordered by the LORD
who takes delight in his journey.
24Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed,
for the LORD is holding his hand.
— Psalm 37:18-24
