37:1 <> Don’t fret because of evil-doers, Neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness.

37:2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither like the green herb.

37:3 Trust in Yahweh, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.

37:4 Also delight yourself in Yahweh, And he will give you the desires of your heart.

37:5 Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this:

37:6 He will make your righteousness go forth as the light, And your justice as the noon day sun.

37:7 Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.

37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Don’t fret, it leads only to evildoing.

37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off, But those who wait for Yahweh shall inherit the land.

37:10 For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more. Yes, though you look for his place, he isn’t there.

37:11 But the humble shall inherit the land, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

37:12 The wicked plots against the just, And gnashes at him with his teeth.

37:13 The Lord will laugh at him, For he sees that his day is coming.

37:14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To kill those who are upright in the way.

37:15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart. Their bows shall be broken.

37:16 Better is a little that the righteous has, Than the abundance of many wicked.

37:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, But Yahweh upholds the righteous.

37:18 Yahweh knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever.

37:19 They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

37:20 But the wicked shall perish. The enemies of Yahweh shall be like the beauty of the fields. They will vanish– Vanish like smoke.

37:21 The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, But the righteous give generously.

37:22 For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.

37:23 A man’s goings are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way.

37:24 Though he stumble, he shall not fall, For Yahweh holds him up with his hand.

37:25 I have been young, and now am old, Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his children begging for bread.

37:26 All day long he deals graciously, and lends. His seed is blessed.

37:27 Depart from evil, and do good; Live securely forever.

37:28 For Yahweh loves justice, And doesn’t forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, But the children of the wicked shall be cut off.

37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, And live in it forever.

37:30 The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom. His tongue speaks justice.

37:31 The law of his God is in his heart. None of his steps shall slide.

37:32 The wicked watches the righteous, And seeks to kill him.

37:33 Yahweh will not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him when he is judged.

37:34 Wait for Yahweh, and keep his way, And he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.

37:35 I have seen the wicked in great power, Spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.

37:36 But he passed away, and, behold, he was not. Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.

37:37 Mark the perfect man, and see the upright, For there is a future for the man of peace.

37:38 As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together. The future of the wicked shall be cut off.

37:39 But the salvation of the righteous is from Yahweh. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.

37:40 Yahweh helps them, and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked, and saves them, Because they have taken refuge in him.
