Psalms Chapter[BR] 37
1 *Davidic. Do not be agitated by evildoers; do not envy those who do wrong.
2 For they wither quickly like grass and wilt like tender green plants.
3 Trust in the LORD and do what is good; dwell in the land and live securely.
4 Take delight in the LORD, and He will give you your heart's desires.
Psalms Chapter[BR] 37
5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will act,
6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like the noonday.
7 Be silent before the LORD and wait expectantly for Him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the man who carries out evil plans.
8 Refrain from anger and give up *your rage; do not be agitated-- it can only bring harm.
Psalms Chapter[BR] 37

18 The LORD watches over the blameless all their days, and their inheritance will last forever.
19 They will not be disgraced in times of adversity; they will be satisfied in days of hunger.
20 But the wicked will perish; the LORD's enemies, like the glory of the pastures, will fade away-- they will fade away like smoke.
Psalms Chapter[BR] 37

24 Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed, because the LORD holds his hand.
Psalms Chapter[BR] 37
25 I have been young and now I am old, yet I have not seen the righteous abandoned or his children begging bread.

28 For the LORD loves justice and will not abandon His faithful ones. They are kept safe forever, but the children of the wicked will be destroyed.
