Tehillim 37:21-32 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

21. The rasha borroweth, and repayeth not; but the tzaddik showeth chonen (generosity), and giveth.

22. For such as be blessed of Him shall inherit Eretz; and they that be cursed of Him shall be cut off.

23. The steps of a gever (man) konanu (are ordered, made firm) by Hashem and He delighteth in his derech.

24. Though he stumble, he shall not utterly fall; for Hashem upholdeth him with His yad (hand, power).

25. I have been na'ar (young), and now am old; yet I have not seen the tzaddik forsaken, nor his zera begging lechem.

26. He is ever chonen (generous, merciful; see verse 21), and lendeth; and his zera is blessed.

27. Depart from rah, and do tov; and dwell l'olahm (for evermore).

28. For Hashem loveth mishpat, and forsaketh not His chasidim; they are preserved l'olahm; but the zera resha'im shall be cut off.

29. The tzaddikim shall inherit Eretz, and dwell therein forever.

30. The mouth of the tzaddik speaketh chochmah, and his leshon uttereth mishpat.

31. The torat Elohav is in his lev; no steps of his shall slip.

32. The rashah lieth in wait to ambush the tzaddik, and seeketh to slay him.
