| 37:1 | By David. Do not fret because of evil doers, Be not envious against doers of iniquity, |
| 37:2 | For as grass speedily they are cut off, And as the greenness of the tender grass do fade. |
| 37:3 | Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell `in' the land, and enjoy faithfulness, |
| 37:4 | And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the petitions of thy heart. |
| 37:5 | Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh, |
| 37:6 | And hath brought out as light thy righteousness, And thy judgment as noon-day. |
| 37:7 | Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because of a man doing wicked devices. |
| 37:8 | Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Fret not thyself only to do evil. |
| 37:9 | For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah, they possess the land. |
| 37:10 | And yet a little, and the wicked is not, And thou hast considered his place, and it is not. |
| 37:11 | And the humble do possess the land, And they have delighted themselves In the abundance of peace. |
| 37:12 | The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing against him his teeth. |
| 37:13 | The Lord doth laugh at him, For He hath seen that his day cometh. |
| 37:14 | A sword have the wicked opened, And they have trodden their bow, To cause to fall the poor and needy, To slaughter the upright of the way. |
| 37:15 | Their sword doth enter into their own heart, And their bows are shivered. |
| 37:16 | Better `is' the little of the righteous, Than the store of many wicked. |
| 37:17 | For the arms of the wicked are shivered, And Jehovah is sustaining the righteous. |
| 37:18 | Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect, And their inheritance is -- to the age. |
| 37:19 | They are not ashamed in a time of evil, And in days of famine they are satisfied. |
| 37:20 | But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed. |
| 37:21 | The wicked is borrowing and repayeth not, And the righteous is gracious and giving. |
| 37:22 | For His blessed ones do possess the land, And His reviled ones are cut off. |
| 37:23 | From Jehovah `are' the steps of a man, They have been prepared, And his way he desireth. |
| 37:24 | When he falleth, he is not cast down, For Jehovah is sustaining his hand. |
| 37:25 | Young I have been, I have also become old, And I have not seen the righteous forsaken, And his seed seeking bread. |
| 37:26 | All the day he is gracious and lending, And his seed `is' for a blessing. |
| 37:27 | Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell to the age. |
| 37:28 | For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off. |
| 37:29 | The righteous possess the land, And they dwell for ever on it. |
| 37:30 | The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, And his tongue speaketh judgment. |
| 37:31 | The law of his God `is' his heart, His steps do not slide. |
| 37:32 | The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking to put him to death. |
| 37:33 | Jehovah doth not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in his being judged. |
| 37:34 | Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off -- thou seest! |
| 37:35 | I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green native plant, |
| 37:36 | And he passeth away, and lo, he is not, And I seek him, and he is not found! |
| 37:37 | Observe the perfect, and see the upright, For the latter end of each `is' peace. |
| 37:38 | And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off. |
| 37:39 | And the salvation of the righteous `is' from Jehovah, Their strong place in a time of adversity. |
| 37:40 | And Jehovah doth help them and deliver them, He delivereth them from the wicked, And saveth them, Because they trusted in Him! |
