Psalm 37:29–38
29 The righteous will inherit the landx
and dwell in it forever.y
30 The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,z
and their tongues speak what is just.
31 The law of their God is in their hearts;a
their feet do not slip.b
32 The wicked lie in waitc for the righteous,d
intent on putting them to death;
33 but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked
or let them be condemnede when brought to trial.f
34 Hope in the Lordg
and keep his way.h
He will exalt you to inherit the land;
when the wicked are destroyed,i you will seej it.
35 I have seen a wicked and ruthless man
flourishingk like a luxuriant native tree,
36 but he soon passed away and was no more;
though I looked for him, he could not be found.l
37 Consider the blameless,m observe the upright;n
a future awaits those who seek peace.d o
