A Psalm of David.H1732 FretH2734 not yourself because of evildoers,H7489 neitherH408 be you enviousH7065 against the workersH6213 of iniquity.H5766
2
For they shall soonH4120 be cutH5243 downH5243 like the grass,H2682 and witherH5034 as the greenH3418 herb.H1877
3
TrustH982 in the LORD,H3068 and doH6213 good;H2896 so shall you dwellH7931 in the land,H776 and trulyH530 you shall be fed.H7462
4
DelightH6026 yourself also in the LORD:H3068 and he shall giveH5414 you the desiresH4862 of your heart.H3820
5
CommitH1556 your wayH1870 to the LORD;H3068 trustH982 also in him; and he shall bringH6213 it to pass.H6213
6
And he shall bringH3318 forthH3318 your righteousnessH6664 as the light,H216 and your judgmentH4941 as the noonday.H6672
7
RestH1826 in the LORD,H3068 and waitH2342 patientlyH2342 for him: fretH2734 not yourself because of him who prospersH6743 in his way,H1870 because of the manH376 who bringsH6213 wickedH4209 devicesH4209 to pass.H6213
8
CeaseH7503 from anger,H639 and forsakeH5800 wrath:H2534 fretH2734 not yourself in any wise to do evil.H7489
9
For evildoersH7489 shall be cutH3772 off: but those that waitH6960 on the LORD,H3068 they shall inheritH3423 the earth.H776
10
For yetH5750 a littleH4592 while, and the wickedH7563 shall not be: yes, you shall diligentlyH995 considerH995 his place,H4725 and it shall not be.
11
But the meekH6035 shall inheritH3423 the earth;H776 and shall delightH6026 themselves in the abundanceH7230 of peace.H7965
12
The wickedH7563 plotsH2161 against the just,H6662 and gnashesH2786 on him with his teeth.H8127
13
The LORDH136 shall laughH7832 at him: for he seesH7200 that his dayH3117 is coming.H935
14
The wickedH7563 have drawnH6605 out the sword,H2719 and have bentH1869 their bow,H7198 to castH5307 downH5307 the poorH6041 and needy,H34 and to slayH2873 such as be of uprightH3477 conversation.H1870
15
Their swordH2719 shall enterH935 into their own heart,H3820 and their bowsH7198 shall be broken.H7665
16
A littleH4592 that a righteousH6662 man has is betterH2896 than the richesH1995 of manyH7227 wicked.H7563
17
For the armsH2220 of the wickedH7563 shall be broken:H7665 but the LORDH3068 upholdsH5564 the righteous.H6662
18
The LORDH3068 knowsH3045 the daysH3117 of the upright:H8549 and their inheritanceH5159 shall be for ever.H5769
19
They shall not be ashamedH954 in the evilH7451 time:H6256 and in the daysH3117 of famineH7459 they shall be satisfied.H7646
20
But the wickedH7563 shall perish,H6 and the enemiesH341 of the LORDH3068 shall be as the fatH3368 of lambs:H3733 they shall consume;H3615 into smokeH6227 shall they consumeH3615 away.
21
The wickedH7563 borrows,H3867 and paysH7999 not again:H7999 but the righteousH6662 shows mercy,H2603 and gives.H5414
22
For such as be blessedH1288 of him shall inheritH3423 the earth;H776 and they that be cursedH7043 of him shall be cutH3772 off.
23
The stepsH4703 of a good manH1397 are orderedH3559 by the LORD:H3068 and he delightsH2654 in his way.H1870
24
ThoughH3588 he fall,H5307 he shall not be utterly castH2904 down:H2904 for the LORDH3068 upholdsH5564 him with his hand.H3027
25
I have beenH1961 young,H5288 and now am old;H2204 yet have I not seenH7200 the righteousH6662 forsaken,H5800 nor his seedH2233 beggingH1245 bread.H3899
26
He is everH3605 H3117 merciful,H2603 and lends;H3867 and his seedH2233 is blessed.H1293
27
DepartH5493 from evil,H7451 and doH6213 good;H2896 and dwellH7931 for ever more.H5769
28
For the LORDH3068 lovesH157 judgment,H4941 and forsakesH5800 not his saints;H2623 they are preservedH8104 for ever:H5769 but the seedH2233 of the wickedH7563 shall be cutH3772 off.
29
The righteousH6662 shall inheritH3423 the land,H776 and dwellH7931 thereinH5921 for ever.H5703
30
The mouthH6310 of the righteousH6662 speaksH1897 wisdom,H2451 and his tongueH3956 talksH1696 of judgment.H4941
31
The lawH8451 of his GodH430 is in his heart;H3820 noneH3808 of his stepsH838 shall slide.H4571
32
The wickedH7563 watchesH6822 the righteous,H6662 and seeksH1245 to slayH4191 him.
33
The LORDH3068 will not leaveH5800 him in his hand,H3027 norH3808 condemnH7561 him when he is judged.H8199
34
WaitH6960 on the LORD,H3068 and keepH8104 his way,H1870 and he shall exaltH7311 you to inheritH3423 the land:H776 when the wickedH7563 are cutH3772 off, you shall seeH7200 it.
35
I have seenH7200 the wickedH7563 in great power,H6184 and spreadingH6168 himself like a greenH7488 bayH249 tree.
36
Yet he passedH5674 away, and, see,H2009 he was not: yes, I soughtH1245 him, but he could not be found.H4672
37
MarkH8104 the perfectH8535 man, and beholdH7200 the upright:H3477 for the endH319 of that manH376 is peace.H7965
38
But the transgressorsH6586 shall be destroyedH8045 together:H3162 the endH319 of the wickedH7563 shall be cutH3772 off.
39
But the salvationH8668 of the righteousH6662 is of the LORD:H3068 he is their strengthH4581 in the timeH6256 of trouble.H6869
40
And the LORDH3068 shall helpH5826 them, and deliverH6403 them: he shall deliverH6403 them from the wicked,H7563 and saveH3467 them, becauseH3588 they trustH2620 in him.
