< Psalms 37 >

1 Of David - may not you fret yourself in the evil-doers may not you be jealous of [those who] do unrighteousness.
τοῦ Δαυιδ μὴ παραζήλου ἐν πονηρευομένοις μηδὲ ζήλου τοὺς ποιοῦντας τὴν ἀνομίαν
2 For like grass quickly they will wither and like [the] greenery of vegetation they will fade!
ὅτι ὡσεὶ χόρτος ταχὺ ἀποξηρανθήσονται καὶ ὡσεὶ λάχανα χλόης ταχὺ ἀποπεσοῦνται
3 Trust in Yahweh and do good dwell [the] land and graze faithfulness.
ἔλπισον ἐπὶ κύριον καὶ ποίει χρηστότητα καὶ κατασκήνου τὴν γῆν καὶ ποιμανθήσῃ ἐπὶ τῷ πλούτῳ αὐτῆς
4 And take delight on Yahweh so he may give to you [the] requests of heart your.
κατατρύφησον τοῦ κυρίου καὶ δώσει σοι τὰ αἰτήματα τῆς καρδίας σου
5 Roll on Yahweh way your and rely on him and he he will act.
ἀποκάλυψον πρὸς κύριον τὴν ὁδόν σου καὶ ἔλπισον ἐπ’ αὐτόν καὶ αὐτὸς ποιήσει
6 And he will bring forth like the light righteousness your and justice your like the noontide.
καὶ ἐξοίσει ὡς φῶς τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου καὶ τὸ κρίμα σου ὡς μεσημβρίαν
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.
ὑποτάγηθι τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἱκέτευσον αὐτόν μὴ παραζήλου ἐν τῷ κατευοδουμένῳ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀνθρώπῳ ποιοῦντι παρανομίας
8 Refrain from anger and forsake rage may not you fret yourself only to do evil.
παῦσαι ἀπὸ ὀργῆς καὶ ἐγκατάλιπε θυμόν μὴ παραζήλου ὥστε πονηρεύεσθαι
9 For evil-doers they will be cut off! and [those who] wait for Yahweh they they will possess [the] land.
ὅτι οἱ πονηρευόμενοι ἐξολεθρευθήσονται οἱ δὲ ὑπομένοντες τὸν κύριον αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσιν γῆν
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.
