37:1 |
Do not fret because of the wicked; do not be envious of wrongdoers,
|
37:2 |
for they will soon fade like the grass, and wither like the green herb.
|
37:3 |
Trust in the LORD, and do good; so you will live in the land, and enjoy security.
|
37:4 |
Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
|
37:5 |
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act.
|
37:6 |
He will make your vindication shine like the light, and the justice of your cause like the noonday.
|
37:7 |
Be still before the LORD, and wait patiently for him; do not fret over those who prosper in their way, over those who carry out evil devices.
|
37:8 |
Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath. Do not fret-- it leads only to evil.
|
37:9 |
For the wicked shall be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.
|
37:10 |
Yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look diligently for their place, they will not be there.
|
37:11 |
But the meek shall inherit the land, and delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
|
37:12 |
The wicked plot against the righteous, and gnash their teeth at them;
|
37:13 |
but the LORD laughs at the wicked, for he sees that their day is coming.
|
37:14 |
The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows to bring down the poor and needy, to kill those who walk uprightly;
|
37:15 |
their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
|
37:16 |
Better is a little that the righteous person has than the abundance of many wicked.
|
37:17 |
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD upholds the righteous.
|
37:18 |
The LORD knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will abide forever;
|
37:19 |
they are not put to shame in evil times, in the days of famine they have abundance.
|
37:20 |
But the wicked perish, and the enemies of the LORD are like the glory of the pastures; they vanish-- like smoke they vanish away.
|
37:21 |
The wicked borrow, and do not pay back, but the righteous are generous and keep giving;
|
37:22 |
for those blessed by the LORD shall inherit the land, but those cursed by him shall be cut off.
|
37:23 |
Our steps are made firm by the LORD, when he delights in our way;
|
37:24 |
though we stumble, we shall not fall headlong, for the LORD holds us by the hand.
|
37:25 |
I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.
|
37:26 |
They are ever giving liberally and lending, and their children become a blessing.
|
37:27 |
Depart from evil, and do good; so you shall abide forever.
|
37:28 |
For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his faithful ones. The righteous shall be kept safe forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
|
37:29 |
The righteous shall inherit the land, and live in it forever.
|
37:30 |
The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom, and their tongues speak justice.
|
37:31 |
The law of their God is in their hearts; their steps do not slip.
|
37:32 |
The wicked watch for the righteous, and seek to kill them.
|
37:33 |
The LORD will not abandon them to their power, or let them be condemned when they are brought to trial.
|
37:34 |
Wait for the LORD, and keep to his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land; you will look on the destruction of the wicked.
|
37:35 |
I have seen the wicked oppressing, and towering like a cedar of Lebanon.
|
37:36 |
Again I passed by, and they were no more; though I sought them, they could not be found.
|
37:37 |
Mark the blameless, and behold the upright, for there is posterity for the peaceable.
|
37:38 |
But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed; the posterity of the wicked shall be cut off.
|
37:39 |
The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; he is their refuge in the time of trouble.
|
37:40 |
The LORD helps them and rescues them; he rescues them from the wicked, and saves them, because they take refuge in him.
