Book of Psalms Chapter 37

19_PSA_37_01 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

19_PSA_37_02 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

19_PSA_37_03 Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

19_PSA_37_04 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

19_PSA_37_05 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass.

19_PSA_37_06 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

19_PSA_37_07 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.

19_PSA_37_08 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

19_PSA_37_09 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

19_PSA_37_10 For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be]: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be].

19_PSA_37_11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

19_PSA_37_12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

19_PSA_37_13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.

19_PSA_37_14 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.

19_PSA_37_15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.

19_PSA_37_16 A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of many wicked.

19_PSA_37_17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.

19_PSA_37_18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.

19_PSA_37_19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

19_PSA_37_20 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.

19_PSA_37_21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth mercy, and giveth.

19_PSA_37_22 For [such as be] blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and [they that be] cursed of him shall be cut off.

19_PSA_37_23 The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

19_PSA_37_24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth [him with] his hand.

19_PSA_37_25 I have been young, and [now] am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

19_PSA_37_26 [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed.

19_PSA_37_27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.

19_PSA_37_28 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.

19_PSA_37_29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.

19_PSA_37_30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.

19_PSA_37_31 The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

19_PSA_37_32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.

19_PSA_37_33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.

19_PSA_37_34 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].

19_PSA_37_35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.

19_PSA_37_36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.

19_PSA_37_37 Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace.

19_PSA_37_38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.

19_PSA_37_39 But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their strength in the time of trouble.

19_PSA_37_40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
