1
Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, Neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
2
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
3
Trust in Jehovah, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on [his] faithfulness.
4
Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
5
Commit thy way unto Jehovah; Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.
6
And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day.
7
Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for him: Fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, Because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: Fret not thyself, [it tendeth] only to evil-doing.
9
For evil-doers shall be cut off; But those that wait for Jehovah, they shall inherit the land.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.
11
But the meek shall inherit the land, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
