Psalm 37:title–11

A Psalm of David.

^aFret not thyself because of evildoers,

Neither ^bbe thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

²For they shall soon ^cbe cut down ^dlike the grass,

And wither as the green herb.

^3eTrust in the Lord, and do good;

So shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily ^eethou shalt be fed.

^4fDelight thyself also in the Lord;

And ^ghe shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

^5hCommit thy way unto the Lord;

^eTrust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

⁶And ⁱhe shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light,

And thy judgment as ^jthe noonday.

⁷Rest in the Lord, and ^kwait patiently for him:

^aFret not thyself because of him ^lwho prospereth in his way,

Because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

^8mCease from anger, and forsake wrath:

^aFret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

^9mmFor evildoers shall be cut off:

But those that wait upon the Lord, they shall ⁿinherit the earth.

¹⁰For ^oyet a little while, and the wicked shall not be:

Yea, thou shalt diligently consider ^phis place, and it shall not be.

¹¹But ^qthe meek shall ⁿinherit the earth;

And shall ^fdelight themselves in the abundance of peace.
