Psalm 37:8 In-Context

6 hará resplandecer tu justicia como la luz, y tu derecho como el mediodía.
7 Confía callado en el SEÑOR y espérale con paciencia; no te irrites a causa del que prospera en su camino, por el hombre que lleva a cabo sus intrigas.
8 Deja la ira y abandona el furor; no te irrites, sĂłlo harĂ­as lo malo.
9 Porque los malhechores serán exterminados, mas los que esperan en el SEÑOR poseerán la tierra.
10 Un poco más y no existirá el impío; buscarás con cuidado su lugar, pero él no estará allí.
