  1. Psalm 37:18 observes the good deeds done by godly men, literally, “knows the days of the upright.”

18 The blameless spend their days under the Lord’s care,(A)
    and their inheritance will endure forever.(B)
19 In times of disaster they will not wither;
    in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.

20 But the wicked will perish:(C)
    Though the Lord’s enemies are like the flowers of the field,
    they will be consumed, they will go up in smoke.(D)
