Psalms 37:32-40
32The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
33Yhwh will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34Wait on Yhwh, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
35I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.1
36Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
38But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
39But the salvation of the righteous is of Yhwh: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
40And Yhwh shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
