Psalm 37:16-18
Contemporary English Version

16 It is better to live right
and be poor
    than to be sinful and rich.
17 The wicked will lose all
    of their power,
but the Lord gives strength
    to everyone who is good.

18 Those who obey the Lord
    are daily in his care,
and what he has given them
    will be theirs forever.
