9 For evildoers shall be 2cut off;

But those who wait on the Lord,

They shall kinherit the earth.

10 For lyet a little while and the wicked shall be no more;

Indeed, myou will look carefully for his place,

But it shall be no more.

11 nBut the meek shall inherit the earth,

And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

12 The wicked plots against the just,

oAnd gnashes at him with his teeth.

13 pThe Lord laughs at him,

For He sees that qhis day is coming.

14 The wicked have drawn the sword

And have bent their bow,

To cast down the poor and needy,

To slay those who are of upright conduct.

15 Their sword shall enter their own heart,

And their bows shall be broken.

16 rA little that a righteous man has

Is better than the riches of many wicked.

17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,

But the Lord upholds the righteous.

18 The Lord knows the days of the upright,

And their inheritance shall be forever.

19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time,

And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

20 But the wicked shall perish;

And the enemies of the Lord,

Like the splendor of the meadows, shall vanish.

Into smoke they shall vanish away.

21 The wicked borrows and does not repay,

But sthe righteous shows mercy and gives.

22 tFor those blessed by Him shall inherit the earth,

But those cursed by Him shall be 3cut off.
