Book of Psalms
Psalm 37
37:1
Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be
thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
37:2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass,
and wither as the green herb.
37:3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou
dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
37:4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall
give thee the desires of thine heart.
37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in
him; and he shall bring it to pass.
37:6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as
the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
37:7 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.
37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not
thyself in any wise to do evil.
37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that
wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
37:10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall
not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his
place, and it shall not be.
37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and
shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
37:12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and
gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
37:13 The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that
his day is coming.
37:14 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.
37:15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart,
and their bows shall be broken.
37:16 A little that a righteous man hath is better
than the riches of many wicked.
37:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken:
but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
37:18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and
their inheritance shall be for ever.
37:19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time:
and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
37:20 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.
37:21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again:
but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
37:22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit
the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be
cut off.
37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the
LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
37:24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast
down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
37:25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I
not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed
begging bread.
37:26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed
is blessed.
37:27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for
evermore.
37:28 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.
37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and
dwell therein for ever.
37:30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom,
and his tongue talketh of judgment.
37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of
his steps shall slide.
37:32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh
to slay him.
37:33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor
condemn him when he is judged.
37:34 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.
37:35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and
spreading himself like a green bay tree.
37:36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea,
I sought him, but he could not be found.
37:37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright:
for the end of that man is peace.
37:38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed
together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
37:39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the
LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
37:40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver
them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and
save them, because they trust in him.
