37:1 |
[A Psalm of David]. Do not fret because of evildoers, Be not envious toward wrongdoers.
|
37:2 |
For they will wither quickly like the grass, And fade like the green herb.
|
37:3 |
Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
|
37:4 |
Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.
|
37:5 |
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
|
37:6 |
And He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your judgment as the noonday.
|
37:7 |
Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.
|
37:8 |
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret, [it leads] only to evildoing.
|
37:9 |
For evildoers will be cut off, But those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land.
|
37:10 |
Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more; And you will look carefully for his place, and he will not be [there].
|
37:11 |
But the humble will inherit the land, And will delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
|
37:12 |
The wicked plots against the righteous, And gnashes at him with his teeth.
|
37:13 |
The Lord laughs at him; For He sees his day is coming.
|
37:14 |
The wicked have drawn the sword and bent their bow, To cast down the afflicted and the needy, To slay those who are upright in conduct.
|
37:15 |
Their sword will enter their own heart, And their bows will be broken.
|
37:16 |
Better is the little of the righteous Than the abundance of many wicked.
|
37:17 |
For the arms of the wicked will be broken; But the LORD sustains the righteous.
|
37:18 |
The LORD knows the days of the blameless; And their inheritance will be forever.
|
37:19 |
They will not be ashamed in the time of evil; And in the days of famine they will have abundance.
|
37:20 |
But the wicked will perish; And the enemies of the LORD will be like the glory of the pastures, They vanish-- like smoke they vanish away.
|
37:21 |
The wicked borrows and does not pay back, But the righteous is gracious and gives.
|
37:22 |
For those blessed by Him will inherit the land; But those cursed by Him will be cut off.
|
37:23 |
The steps of a man are established by the LORD; And He delights in his way.
|
37:24 |
When he falls, he shall not be hurled headlong; Because the LORD is the One who holds his hand.
|
37:25 |
I have been young, and now I am old; Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, Or his descendants begging bread.
|
37:26 |
All day long he is gracious and lends; And his descendants are a blessing.
|
37:27 |
Depart from evil, and do good, So you will abide forever.
|
37:28 |
For the LORD loves justice, And does not forsake His godly ones; They are preserved forever; But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off.
|
37:29 |
The righteous will inherit the land, And dwell in it forever.
|
37:30 |
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, And his tongue speaks justice.
|
37:31 |
The law of his God is in his heart; His steps do not slip.
|
37:32 |
The wicked spies upon the righteous, And seeks to kill him.
|
37:33 |
The LORD will not leave him in his hand, Or let him be condemned when he is judged.
|
37:34 |
Wait for the LORD, and keep His way, And He will exalt you to inherit the land; When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.
|
37:35 |
I have seen a violent, wicked man Spreading himself like a luxuriant tree in its native soil.
|
37:36 |
Then he passed away, and lo, he was no more; I sought for him, but he could not be found.
|
37:37 |
Mark the blameless man, and behold the upright; For the man of peace will have a posterity.
|
37:38 |
But transgressors will be altogether destroyed; The posterity of the wicked will be cut off.
|
37:39 |
But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their strength in time of trouble.
|
37:40 |
And the LORD helps them, and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked, and saves them, Because they take refuge in Him.
