Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, Neither
be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness. |

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

land, and feed on his faithfulness. |

give thee the desires of thy heart. |

as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day. |

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. |
|

| Psalm 37:8 |
|
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: Fret not
thyself, it tendeth only to evil-doing. |

For evil-doers shall be cut off; But those that
wait for Jehovah, they shall inherit the land. |

For yet a little while, and the wicked shall
not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be. |

delight themselves in the abundance of peace. |

upon him with his teeth. |

his day is coming. |
|
|

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have
bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in
the way. |

| Psalm 37:15 |
|
Their sword shall enter into their own heart,
And their bows shall be broken. |

of Jehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: They shall consume; In smoke shall they
consume away. |

The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again;
But the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth. |

For such as are blessed of him shall inherit
the land; And they that are cursed of him shall be cut off. |

Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast
down; For Jehovah 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. |

All the day long he dealeth graciously, and
lendeth; And his seed is blessed. |

exalt thee to inherit the land: When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. |

himself like a green tree in its native soil. |
