“I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.”
The psalmist reflects 'I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.' The reflection based on personal observation across a lifetime affirms that God provides for the righteous. The specific mention that children are not reduced to begging suggests that God's provision extends across generations. This verse invokes the psalmist's experience as testimony to God's faithfulness.
