Psalms 37

1  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.
