Book 19 Psalms Chapter 037
  | |
| 037:001 | Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.   |
| 037:002 | For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.   |
| 037:003 | Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.   |
| 037:004 | Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.   |
| 037:005 | Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.   |
| 037:006 | And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.   |
| 037:007 | Rest in the LORD, 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.   |
| 037:008 | Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.   |
| 037:009 | For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.   |
| 037:010 | For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.   |
| 037:011 | But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.   |
| 037:012 | The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.   |
| 037:013 | The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.   |
| 037:014 | The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.   |
| 037:015 | Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.   |
| 037:016 | A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.   |
| 037:017 | For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.   |
| 037:018 | The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.   |
| 037:019 | They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.   |
| 037:020 | But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.   |
| 037:021 | The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.   |
| 037:022 | For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.   |
| 037:023 | The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.   |
| 037:024 | Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.   |
| 037:025 | I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.   |
| 037:026 | He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.   |
| 037:027 | Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.   |
| 037:028 | For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.   |
| 037:029 | The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.   |
| 037:030 | The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.   |
| 037:031 | The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.   |
| 037:032 | The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.   |
| 037:033 | The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.   |
| 037:034 | Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.   |
| 037:035 | I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.   |
| 037:036 | Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.   |
| 037:037 | Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.   |
| 037:038 | But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.   |
| 037:039 | But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.   |
| 037:040 | And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him. |
