Psalms 37:1-9

1FretH2734 not thyself because of evildoersH7489, neither be thou enviousH7065 against the workersH6213 of iniquityH5766.

2For they shall soonH4120 be cut downH5243 like the grassH2682, and witherH5034 as the greenH3418 herbH1877.

3TrustH982 in YhwhH3068, and doH6213 goodH2896; so shalt thou dwellH7931 in the landH776, and verilyH530 thou shalt be fedH7462.1

4DelightH6026 thyself also in YhwhH3068; and he shall giveH5414 thee the desiresH4862 of thine heartH3820.

5CommitH1556 thy wayH1870 unto YhwhH3068; trustH982 also in him; and he shall bring it to passH6213.2

6And he shall bring forthH3318 thy righteousnessH6664 as the lightH216, and thy judgmentH4941 as the noondayH6672.

7RestH1826 in YhwhH3068, and wait patientlyH2342 for him: fretH2734 not thyself because of him who prosperethH6743 in his wayH1870, because of the manH376 who bringethH6213 wicked devicesH4209 to passH6213.3

8CeaseH7503 from angerH639, and forsakeH5800 wrathH2534: fretH2734 not thyself in any wiseH389 to do evilH7489.

9For evildoersH7489 shall be cut offH3772: but those that waitH6960 upon YhwhH3068, they shall inheritH3423 the earthH776.
