Psalms 37
old testament
- 1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, Neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
- 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
- 3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on [his] faithfulness.
- 4 Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
- 5 Commit thy way unto Jehovah; Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.
- 6 And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day.
- 7 Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for him: Fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, Because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
- 8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: Fret not thyself, [it tendeth] only to evil-doing.
- 9 For evil-doers shall be cut off; But those that wait for Jehovah, they shall inherit the land.
- 10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.
- 11 But the meek shall inherit the land, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
- 12 The wicked plotteth against the just, And gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
- 13 The Lord will laugh at him; For he seeth that his day is coming.
- 14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in the way.
- 15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, And their bows shall be broken.
- 16 Better is a little that the righteous hath Than the abundance of many wicked.
- 17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; But Jehovah upholdeth the righteous.
- 18 Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever.
- 19 They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
- 20 But the wicked shall perish, And the enemies of Jehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: They shall consume; In smoke shall they consume away.
- 21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again; But the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
- 22 For such as are blessed of him shall inherit the land; And they that are cursed of him shall be cut off.
- 23 A man's goings are established of Jehovah; And he delighteth in his way.
- 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For Jehovah upholdeth him with his hand.
- 25 I have been young, and now am old; Yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread.
- 26 All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; And his seed is blessed.
- 27 Depart from evil, and do good; And dwell for evermore.
- 28 For Jehovah loveth justice, And forsaketh not his saints; They are preserved for ever: But the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
- 29 The righteous shall inherit the land, And dwell therein for ever.
- 30 The mouth of the righteous talketh of wisdom, And his tongue speaketh justice.
- 31 The law of his God is in his heart; None of his steps shall slide.
- 32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, And seeketh to slay him.
- 33 Jehovah will not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him when he is judged.
- 34 Wait for Jehovah, and keep his way, And he will exalt thee to inherit the land: When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
- 35 I have seen the wicked in great power, And spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.
- 36 But one passed by, and, lo, he was not: Yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
- 37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright; For there is a [happy] end to the man of peace.
- 38 As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together; The end of the wicked shall be cut off.
- 39 But the salvation of the righteous is of Jehovah; He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
- 40 And Jehovah helpeth them, and rescueth them; He rescueth them from the wicked, and saveth them, Because they have taken refuge in him.
