ASV

NIV

1 Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, Neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
1 Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
2 for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.
3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on [his] faithfulness.
3 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
4 Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit thy way unto Jehovah; Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.
5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:
6 And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day.
6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.
