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