Contextual Overview

21 The vngodly boroweth and payeth not agayne: but the righteous geueth mercifully and liberally. 22 Suche as be blessed of God shall possesse the lande: and they that be cursed of hym, shalbe rooted out. 23 The pathes of man is directed by God: and his way pleaseth. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be vndone: for God vpholdeth him with his hande. 25 I haue ben a young chylde, and nowe I am olde: and yet sawe I neuer the righteous forsaken, nor his seede begyng bread. 26 The righteous is euer mercifull and lendeth: and his seede is blessed. 27 Flee from euill & do good: and dwell for euer. 28 For God loueth iudgement, he forsaketh not his saintes: they are preserued for euermore, but the seede of the vngodlye shalbe rooted vp. 29 The righteous shal inherite the land: and dwell therin for euer. 30 The mouth of the righteous is exercised in wysdome: and his tongue wyll be talking of iudgement.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[He is] ever merciful, and lendeth,.... He sympathizes with the poor in distress, and shows mercy to miserable objects; not only by words, but deeds: and this is his constant disposition and conduct; of which his lending, as well as giving to persons in necessity, is an instance; and which shows capacity, and is a proof of the observation of the psalmist, that such are never forsaken, nor left to beg their bread: so far from it, that they have to lend and give to others;

and his seed [is] blessed; either his seed sown, his alms deeds, which are blessed to him and his, and to them to whom he ministers, as Jarchi explains it; see 2 Corinthians 9:6; or rather his offspring, who are blessed of God with things temporal for his sake; and are blessed by men, who say of them, these are the posterity of such and such liberal persons.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He is ever merciful - Margin, as in Hebrew, “all the day.” That is, it is his character; he is constantly in the habit of showing kindness. He does not do it at intervals, or only occasionally, but it is this that marks the character of the man. He is known by this. The word “merciful” here means kind, compassionate, benignant - and particularly in this respect, that he is willing to “lend” to others when he has the means.

And lendeth - The wicked man “borrows,” but does not pay again Psalms 37:21; the righteous man “lends” to his neighbor.

And his seed is blessed - His children; his posterity, as the result of this conduct on his part. The effect of what he does passes over from him to them, conveying rich blessings to them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 37:26. He is ever merciful and lendeth — כל היום חונן kol haiyom chonen, "all the day he is compassionate." He is confirmed in the habit of godliness: he feels for the distresses of men, and is ready to divide and distribute to all that are in necessity.

And his seed is blessed. — The preceding words were not spoken casually; his seed, his posterity, is blessed; therefore they are not abandoned to beg their bread.
