Depart from evil and do good Having therefore these glorious promises and privileges, let no man do any evil or unjust thing, to enrich or secure himself, nor abstain from any pious or charitable action, for fear of empoverishing himself thereby: but let every man live in a conscientious discharge of all his duties to God and men, committing himself and all his affairs to God's fatherly care and providence, and confidently expecting his blessing thereupon. And dwell for evermore
That is, he shall dwell for evermore in heaven, and for a long time on earth. See on Psalms 37:3. The Lord loveth judgment That is, just judgment, or righteousness, as the word משׁפשׂ, mishpat, often signifies. That is, he loves it in himself: he loveth to execute it upon the wicked, and for the righteous: which he doth in the manner expressed in this Psalm. And he loves it in the righteous, whose justice, and piety, and charity he sees, approves, and will reward. And forsaketh not his saints Hebrew, חסידיו, chasidaiv, his kind, merciful, and beneficent ones who exercise benignity and charity to others.
