⁹ For the evil-doers will be cut off: but those who have faith in the Lord will have the earth for their heritage.

²¹ For the upright will be living in the land, and the good will have it for their heritage.

¹¹ But the gentle will have the earth for their heritage; they will take their delight in peace without measure.

¹⁸ The days of the upright are numbered by the Lord, and their heritage will be for ever.

²⁰ In loving the Lord your God, hearing his voice and being true to him: for he is your life and by him will your days be long: so that you may go on living in the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

²⁷ Be turned from evil, and do good; and your place will be for ever.

¹³ But having faith in his word, we are looking for a new heaven and a new earth, which will be the resting-place of righteousness.

³ And there came to my ears a great voice out of the high seat, saying, See, the Tent of God is with men, and he will make his living-place with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them, and be their God.

⁴ And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.

⁷ He who overcomes will have these things for his heritage; and I will be his God, and he will be my son.
