Psalm 37:3–9
3 Trust in the Lord and do what is good;x
dwell in the land and live securely.B,y
and he will give you your heart’s desires.z
5 Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act,aa
6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn,
your justice like the noonday.ab
7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him;ac
do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way,
by the person who carries out evil plans.ad
8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage;
do not be agitated—it can only bring harm.ae
9 For evildoers will be destroyed,
but those who put their hope in the Lord
will inherit the land.af
