9
For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait on Jehovah, they shall possess the land.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked is not; and thou considerest his place, but he is not.
11
But the meek shall possess the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of prosperity.
12
The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth his teeth against him.
13
The Lord laugheth at him; for he seeth that his day is coming.
14
The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the afflicted and needy, to slay those that are upright in [the] way:
15
their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16
The little that the righteous hath is better than the abundance of many wicked;
17
for the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but Jehovah upholdeth the righteous.
18
Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; and their inheritance shall be for ever:
19
they shall not be ashamed in the time of evil, and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
