Psalm 37 - A Psalm of David.

Fret not thyself because of
evildoers, neither be thou envious

against the workers of iniquity.

For they shall soon be cut down like
the grass, and wither as the green herb.

Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so shalt thou dwell in the land,

and verily thou shalt be fed.

Delight thyself also in the
Lord: and he shall give thee

the desires of thine heart.

Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also
in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

And he shall bring forth thy
righteousness as the light, and

thy judgment as the noonday.

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.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath:
fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

For evildoers shall be cut off:
but those that wait upon the Lord,

they shall inherit the earth.

For yet a little while, and the wicked
shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently

consider his place, and it shall not be.

But the meek shall inherit the
earth; and shall delight themselves

in the abundance of peace.

The wicked plotteth against the just,
and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

The Lord shall laugh at him: for
he seeth that his day is coming.

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.

Their sword shall enter into their own
heart, and their bows shall be broken.

A little that a righteous man hath is
better than the riches of many wicked.

For the arms of the wicked
shall be broken: but the

Lord upholdeth the righteous.

The Lord knoweth the days of the upright:
and their inheritance shall be for ever.

They shall not be ashamed in the
evil time: and in the days of

famine they shall be satisfied.

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.

The wicked borroweth, and payeth
not again: but the righteous

sheweth mercy, and giveth.

For such as be blessed of him shall
inherit the earth; and they that

be cursed of him shall be cut off.

The steps of a good man are ordered by
the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

Though he fall, he shall not be
utterly cast down: for the Lord

upholdeth him with his hand.

I have been young, and now am old;
yet have I not seen the righteous

forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

He is ever merciful, and
lendeth; and his seed is blessed.

Depart from evil, and do
good; and dwell for evermore.

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.

The righteous shall inherit the
land, and dwell therein for ever.

The mouth of the righteous
speaketh wisdom, and his

tongue talketh of judgment.

The law of his God is in his heart;
none of his steps shall slide.

The wicked watcheth the righteous,
and seeketh to slay him.

The Lord will not leave him in his
hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.

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.

I have seen the wicked in great power, and
spreading himself like a green bay tree.

Yet he passed away, and, lo,
he was not: yea, I sought him,

but he could not be found.

Mark the perfect man, and behold the
upright: for the end of that man is peace.

But the transgressors shall be
destroyed together: the end of

the wicked shall be cut off.

But the salvation of the righteous
is of the Lord: he is their

strength in the time of trouble.

And the Lord shall help them, and
deliver them: he shall deliver

them from the wicked, and save
them, because they trust in him.
