Salmi 37:18 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 37:18

The Lord knoweth the days of the upright
Not only how long they shall live, and so fill up their days, the number of them, as Aben Ezra interprets it; but the nature of their days, whether prosperous or adverse; and causes both to work together for their good; and he knows the work of their days, as Jarchi explains it, the actions done by them in faith and love, and to his honour and glory, and which he approves and accepts of in Christ; see ( Psalms 1:6 ) ;

and their inheritance shall be for ever;
in heaven, which is an eternal and never fading one, ( Hebrews 9:15 ) ( 1 Peter 1:4 ) ; and therefore they ought not to fret and be envious.

Salmi 37:18 In-Context

16 Meglio vale il poco del giusto che l’abbondanza di molti empi.
17 Perché le braccia degli empi saranno rotte; ma l’Eterno sostiene i giusti.
18 L’Eterno conosce i giorni degli uomini integri; e la loro eredità durerà in perpetuo.
19 Essi non saran confusi nel tempo dell’avversità, e saranno saziati nel tempo dalla fame.
20 Ma gli empi periranno; e i nemici dell’Eterno, come grasso d’agnelli, saran consumati e andranno in fumo.
