'Continue' in the Bible

Oh continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee, And thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

Their inward thought is, that their houses'shall continue for ever, And their dwelling-places to all generations; They call their lands after their own names.

The children of thy servants shall continue, And their seed shall be established before thee.

Let the righteous smite me, it shall be a kindness; And let him reprove me, it shall be as oil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.
