9
For the wicked shall be cut off; but those who wait for the LORD shall possess the land.
10
Yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look well at his place, he will not be there.
11
But the meek shall possess the land, and delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
12
The wicked plots against the righteous, and gnashes his teeth at him;
13
but the LORD laughs at the wicked, for he sees that his day is coming.
14
The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows, to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those who walk uprightly;
15
their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16
Better is a little that the righteous has than the abundance of many wicked.
17
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but the LORD upholds the righteous.
18
The LORD knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will abide for ever;
19
they are not put to shame in evil times, in the days of famine they have abundance.
