7
Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him that prospereth in his way, because of the man that bringeth mischievous devices to pass.
8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; fret not thyself: it [would be] only to do evil.
9
For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait on Jehovah, they shall possess the land.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked is not; and thou considerest his place, but he is not.
11
But the meek shall possess the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of prosperity.
