1aFret 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.
5†hCommit 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.
7†Rest 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.
