PSALM 37
Security of Those Who Trust in the LORD, and Insecurity of the Wicked.
A Psalm of David.
1 Do not get H2734 upset H2734 because of evildoers H7489,
Do not be H7065 envious H7065 of wrongdoers H5766.
2 For they will wither H4448 quickly H4120 like the grass H2682,
And decay H5034 like the green H3418 plants H1877.
3 Trust H982 in the LORD H3068 and do H6213 good H2896;
Live H7931 in H7931 the land H776 and [fn]cultivate H7462 faithfulness H530.
4 Delight H6026 yourself in the LORD H3068;
And He will give H5414 you the desires H4862 of your heart H3820.
5 Commit H1556 your way H1870 to the LORD H3068,
Trust H982 also in Him, and He will do H6213 it.
6 He will bring H3318 out H3318 your righteousness H6664 as the light H216,
And your judgment H4941 as the noonday H6672.
7 [fn]Rest H1826 in the LORD H3068 and wait H2342 [fn]patiently H2342 for Him;
Do not get H2734 upset H2734 because of one who is H6743 successful H6743 in his way H1870,
Because of the person H376 who carries H6213 out H6213 wicked H4209 schemes H4209.
8 Cease H7503 from anger H639 and abandon H5800 wrath H2534;
Do not get H2734 upset H2734; it leads only H389 to evildoing H7489.
9 For evildoers H7489 will be eliminated H3772,
But those who wait H6960 for the LORD H3068, they will inherit H3423 the land H776.
10 Yet H5750 a little H4592 while H4592 and the wicked H7563 person H7563 will be no H369 more H369;
And you will look H995 carefully H995 for his place H4725 and he will not be there.
11 But the humble H6035 will inherit H3423 the land H776
And will delight H6026 themselves in abundant H7230 prosperity H7965.
12 The wicked H7563 plots H2161 against the righteous H6662,
And gnashes H2786 at him with his teeth H8127.
13 The Lord H136 laughs H7832 at him,
For He sees H7200 that his day H3117 is coming H935.
14 The wicked H7563 have drawn H6605 the sword H2719 and bent H1869 their bow H7198
To take H5307 down H5307 the afflicted H6041 and the needy H34,
To kill H2873 off H2873 those who are upright H3477 in conduct H1870.
15 Their sword H2719 will enter H935 their own heart H3820,
And their bows H7198 will be broken H7665.
16 Better H2896 is the little H4592 of the righteous H6662
Than H4480 the abundance H1995 of many H7227 wicked H7563.
17 For the arms H2220 of the wicked H7563 will be broken H7665,
But the LORD H3068 sustains H5564 the righteous H6662.
18 The LORD H3068 knows H3045 the days H3117 of the [fn]blameless H8549,
And their inheritance H5159 will be forever H5769.
19 They will not be H954 ashamed H954 in the time H6256 of evil H7451,
And in the days H3117 of famine H7459 they will have H7646 plenty H7646.
20 But the wicked H7563 will perish H6;
And the enemies H340 of the LORD H3068 will be like the [fn]glory H3368 of the pastures H3733,
They vanish H3615—like smoke H6227 they vanish H3615 away.
21 The wicked H7563 borrows H3867 and does not pay H7999 back H7999,
But the righteous H6662 is gracious H2603 and gives H5414.
22 For those blessed H1288 by Him will inherit H3423 the land H776,
But those cursed H7043 by Him will be eliminated H3772.
23 The steps H4703 of a man H1397 are established H3559 by the LORD H3068,
And He delights H2654 in his way H1870.
24 When H3588 he falls H5307, he will not be hurled H2904 down H2904,
Because H3588 the LORD H3068 is the One [fn]who holds H5564 his hand H3027.
25 I have been H1961 young H5288 and now H1571 I am H2204 old H2204,
Yet I have not seen H7200 the righteous H6662 forsaken H5800
Or his [fn]descendants H2233 begging H1245 for bread H3899.
26 All H3605 day H3117 long he is gracious H2603 and lends H3867,
And his [fn]descendants H2233 are a blessing H1293.
27 Turn H5493 from evil H7451 and do H6213 good H2896,
So that you will dwell H7931 forever H5769.
28 For the LORD H3068 loves H157 [fn]justice H4941
And does not abandon H5800 His godly H2623 ones H2623;
They are protected H8104 forever H5769,
But the [fn]descendants H2233 of the wicked H7563 will be eliminated H3772.
29 The righteous H6662 will inherit H3423 the land H776
And dwell H7931 in it forever H5703.
30 The mouth H6310 of the righteous H6662 utters H1897 wisdom H2451,
And his tongue H3956 speaks H1696 justice H4941.
31 The Law H8451 of his God H430 is in his heart H3820;
His steps H838 do not slip H4571.
32 The wicked H7563 spies H6822 upon the righteous H6662
And seeks H1245 to kill H4191 him.
33 The LORD H3068 will not leave H5800 him in his hand H3027
Or let him be condemned H7561 when he is judged H8199.
34 Wait H6960 for the LORD H3068 and keep H8104 His way H1870,
And He will exalt H7311 you to inherit H3423 the land H776;
When the wicked H7563 are eliminated H3772, you will see H7200 it.
35 I have seen H7200 a wicked H7563, violent H6184 person H7563
Spreading H6168 himself like a luxuriant H7488 [fn]tree H249 in its native H249 soil.
36 Then he passed H5674 away H5674, and behold H2009, he was no H369 more H369;
I searched H1245 for him, but he could not be found H4672.
37 Observe H8104 the [fn]blameless H8535 person H8535, and look H7200 at the upright H3477;
For the person H376 of peace H7965 will have a future H319.
38 But wrongdoers H6586 will altogether H3162 be destroyed H8045;
The future H319 of the wicked H7563 will be eliminated H3772.
39 But the salvation H8668 of the righteous H6662 is from the LORD H3068;
He is their strength H4581 in time H6256 of trouble H6869.
40 The LORD H3068 helps H5826 them and rescues H6403 them;
He rescues H6403 them from the wicked H7563 and saves H3467 them,
