< Psalms 37 >

1 Of David - may not you fret yourself in the evil-doers may not you be jealous of [those who] do unrighteousness.
A Psalme of David. Fret not thy selfe because of the wicked men, neither be enuious for the euill doers.
2 For like grass quickly they will wither and like [the] greenery of vegetation they will fade!
For they shall soone bee cut downe like grasse, and shall wither as the greene herbe.
3 Trust in Yahweh and do good dwell [the] land and graze faithfulness.
Trust thou in the Lord and do good: dwell in the land, and thou shalt be fed assuredly.
4 And take delight on Yahweh so he may give to you [the] requests of heart your.
And delite thy selfe in the Lord, and hee shall giue thee thine hearts desire.
5 Roll on Yahweh way your and rely on him and he he will act.
Commit thy way vnto the Lord, and trust in him, and he shall bring it to passe.
6 And he will bring forth like the light righteousness your and justice your like the noontide.
And he shall bring foorth thy righteousnes as the light, and thy iudgement as the noone day.
7 Be still - to Yahweh and wait longingly for him may not you fret yourself in [one who] makes prosperous way his in a person [who] makes plots.
Waite patiently vpon the Lord and hope in him: fret not thy selfe for him which prospereth in his way: nor for the man that bringeth his enterprises to passe.
8 Refrain from anger and forsake rage may not you fret yourself only to do evil.
Cease from anger, and leaue off wrath: fret not thy selfe also to doe euill.
9 For evil-doers they will be cut off! and [those who] wait for Yahweh they they will possess [the] land.
For euill doers shalbe cut off, and they that wait vpon the Lord, they shall inherite the land.
10 And yet a little and there not [will be the] wicked and you will look carefully on place his and there not [will be] he.
Therefore yet a litle while, and the wicked shall not appeare, and thou shalt looke after his place, and he shall not be found.
11 And humble [people] they will possess [the] land and they will take delight on abundance of well-being.
But meeke men shall possesse the earth, and shall haue their delite in the multitude of peace.
12 [is] plotting [the] wicked To the righteous and [is] gnashing towards him teeth his.
The wicked practiseth against the iust, and gnasheth his teeth against him.
13 [the] Lord He laughs to him for he sees that it will come day his.
But the Lord shall laugh him to scorne: for he seeth, that his day is comming.
14 A sword - they have drawn wicked [people] and they have bent bow their to make fall [the] poor and [the] needy to slaughter [people] upright of way.
The wicked haue drawen their sworde, and haue bent their bowe, to cast downe the poore and needie, and to slay such as be of vpright conuersation.
15 Sword their it will go in own heart their and bows their they will be broken.
But their sword shall enter into their owne heart, and their bowes shalbe broken.
16 [is] good [the] little Of the righteous more than [the] wealth of wicked [people] many.
A small thing vnto the iust man is better, then great riches to the wicked and mightie.
17 For [the] arms of wicked [people] they will be broken and [is] sustaining righteous [people] Yahweh.
For the armes of the wicked shall be broken: but the Lord vpholdeth the iust men.
18 [is] knowing Yahweh [the] days of blameless [people] and inheritance their for ever it will be.
The Lord knoweth the dayes of vpright men, and their inheritance shall bee perpetuall.
19 Not they will be ashamed in a time evil and in days of famine they will be satisfied.
They shall not be confounded in the perilous time, and in the daies of famine they shall haue ynough.
20 For wicked [people] - they will perish and [the] enemies of Yahweh [will be] like a splendid [thing] of pastures they will come to an end in smoke they will come to an end.
But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be consumed as the fatte of lambes: euen with the smoke shall they consume away.
21 [is] borrowing [the] wicked And not he repays and [the] righteous [is] showing favor and giving.
The wicked boroweth and payeth not againe. but the righteous is mercifull, and giueth.
22 For blessed [ones] his they will possess [the] land and cursed [ones] his they will be cut off.
For such as be blessed of God, shall inherite the lande, and they that be cursed of him, shalbe cut off.
23 From Yahweh [the] steps of a man they are established and way his he delights in.
The pathes of man are directed by the Lord: for he loueth his way.
24 For he will fall not he will be thrown down for Yahweh [is] supporting hand his.
Though he fall, hee shall not be cast off: for the Lord putteth vnder his hand.
25 A young man - I have been also I am old and not I have seen [the] righteous forsaken and offspring his seeking food.
I haue beene yong, and am olde: yet I sawe neuer the righteous forsaken, nor his seede begging bread.
26 All the day [he is] showing favor and [he is] lending and offspring his [become] a blessing.
But hee is euer mercifull and lendeth, and his seede enioyeth the blessing.
27 Turn away from evil and do good and dwell for ever.
Flee from euill and doe good, and dwell for euer.
28 For Yahweh - [is] loving justice and not he will abandon faithful [people] his for ever they are preserved and [the] offspring of wicked [people] it is cut off.
For the Lord loueth iudgement, and forsaketh not his Saintes: they shall be preserued for euermore: but the seede of the wicked shall be cut off.
29 Righteous [people] they will possess [the] land so they may dwell for ever on it.
The righteous men shall inherit the lande, and dwell therein for euer.
30 [the] mouth of [the] righteous It utters wisdom and tongue his it speaks justice.
The mouth of the righteous will speake of wisedome, and his tongue will talke of iudgement.
31 [the] law of God his [is] in heart his not it slips steps his.
For the Lawe of his God is in his heart, and his steppes shall not slide.
32 [is] watching A wicked [person] for righteous [person] and [is] seeking to kill him.
The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
33 Yahweh not he will abandon him in hand his and not he will condemn as guilty him when is judged he.
But the Lord wil not leaue him in his hand, nor condemne him, when he is iudged.
34 Wait to Yahweh - and keep way his and he will exalt you to possess [the] land when are cut off wicked [people] you will see.
Waite thou on the Lord, and keepe his way, and he shall exalt thee, that thou shalt inherite the lande: when the wicked men shall perish, thou shalt see.
35 I have seen a wicked [person] ruthless and spreading himself like a native tree luxuriant.
I haue seene the wicked strong, and spreading himselfe like a greene bay tree.
36 And he passed away and there! there not [was] he and I sought him and not he was found.
Yet he passed away, and loe, he was gone, and I sought him, but he could not be founde.
37 Watch [the] blameless and see [the] upright for a future [belongs] to a person of peace.
Marke the vpright man, and beholde the iust: for the end of that man is peace.
38 And transgressors they will be destroyed altogether [the] future of wicked [people] it will be cut off.
But the transgressours shall be destroyed together, and the ende of the wicked shall bee cut off.
39 And [the] salvation of righteous [people] [is] from Yahweh place of refuge their in a time of trouble.
But the saluation of the righteous men shalbe of the Lord: he shalbe their strength in the time of trouble.
40 And he helped them Yahweh and he delivered them he delivers them from wicked [people] and he saves them for they have taken refuge in him.
For the Lord shall helpe them, and deliuer them: he shall deliuer them from the wicked, and shall saue them, because they trust in him.
