Young's Literal Translation YLT
New International Version NIV
3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell [in] the land, and enjoy faithfulness,
3
Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the petitions of thy heart.
4
Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh,
5
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:
6 And hath brought out as light thy righteousness, And thy judgment as noon-day.
6
He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.
7 Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because of a man doing wicked devices.
7
Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Fret not thyself only to do evil.
8
Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah, they possess the land.
9
For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
10 And yet a little, and the wicked is not, And thou hast considered his place, and it is not.
10
A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found.
11 And the humble do possess the land, And they have delighted themselves In the abundance of peace.
11
But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity.
12 The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing against him his teeth.
12
The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them;
13 The Lord doth laugh at him, For He hath seen that his day cometh.
13
but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming.
