Heredity » Beneficent influence of the righteous
In the [reverent] fear of the Lord there is strong confidence,
And His children will [always] have a place of refuge.
I have been young and now I am old,
Yet I have not seen the righteous (those in right standing with God) abandoned
Or his descendants pleading for bread.
The righteous man who walks in integrity and lives life in accord with his [godly] beliefs—
How blessed [happy and spiritually secure] are his children after him [who have his example to follow].
His descendants will be mighty on earth;
The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Assuredly, the evil man will not go unpunished,
But the descendants of the righteous will be freed.
His soul will dwell in prosperity and goodness,
And his descendants will inherit the land.
The descendants of His servants will inherit it,
And those who love His name will dwell in it.
“The children of Your servants will continue,
And their descendants will be established before You.”
