Psalm 37:10–17
10 A little while, and the wicked person will be no more;
though you look for him, he will not be there.a
11 But the humble will inherit the landb
and will enjoy abundant prosperity.c
12 The wicked person schemes against the righteous
and gnashes his teeth at him.d
13 The Lord laughs at hime
because he sees that his day is coming.f
14 The wicked have drawn the sword and strung theA bow
to bring down the poor and needy
and to slaughter those whose way is upright.g
15 Their swords will enter their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.h
16 The little that the righteous person has is better
than the abundance of many wicked people.i
17 For the arms of the wicked will be broken,j
but the Lord supports the righteous.k
