Psalm 37:26

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

He's ever merciful, and lends: his seed is bless'd therefore.

See the chapter Copy

A good man doth his favour shew, and doth to others lend: He with discretion his affairs will guide unto the end.

The wicked borrows, but the same again he doth not pay; Whereas the righteous mercy shews, and gives his own away.

He hath dispers'd, giv'n to the poor; his righteousness shall be To ages all; with honour shall his horn be raised high.

For thy gates' bars he maketh strong; thy sons in thee doth bless.
