Psalm 37:18
“The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 37Meaning
The LORD knows the days of the blameless and their inheritance endures; divine knowledge gives security without claiming that faithful people can predict the length or material shape of their lives.
Violence has limits before God
Verses 12–20 depict plots, weapons, and apparent power of the wicked, yet insist that injustice is temporary and cannot secure the future.
Read carefully
The LORD knows the days of the blameless and their inheritance endures; divine knowledge gives security without claiming that faithful people can predict the length or material shape of their lives.
Reflection
The LORD knows the days of the blameless and their inheritance endures; divine knowledge gives security without claiming that faithful people can predict the length or material shape of their lives.
