      | ¶ | [[[A Psalm] of David.]] Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. | |
| For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. | ||
| Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. | ||
 | Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. | ||
| Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass. | ||
| And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. | ||
| Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. | ||
| Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. | ||
| For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. | ||
| For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be]: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be]. | ||
| But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. | ||
| The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. | ||
| The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. | ||
| The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, [and] to slay such as be of upright conversation. | ||
| Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken. | ||
| A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of many wicked. | ||
| For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous. | ||
| The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. | ||
| They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. | ||
| But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be] as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away. | ||
| The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. | ||
| For [such as be] blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and [they that be] cursed of him shall be cut off. | ||
| The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. | ||
| Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth [him with] his hand. | ||
| I have been young, and [now] am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. | ||
| [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed. | ||
| Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. | ||
| For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. | ||
| The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. | ||
| The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. | ||
| The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. | ||
| The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. | ||
| The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. | ||
| Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it]. | ||
| I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. | ||
| Yet he passed away, and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found. | ||
| Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace. | ||
| But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off. | ||
| But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their strength in the time of trouble. | ||
| And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him. |
