Psalm 37:7–15

7 Rest in the Lord, gand wait patiently for Him;

Do not fret because of him who hprospers in his way,

Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.

8 iCease from anger, and forsake wrath;

jDo not fret—it only causes harm.

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.
