1 - [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evil doers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

2 - For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

3 - Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

4 - Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he will give thee the desires of thy heart.

5 - Commit thy way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he will bring [it] to pass.

6 - And he will bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noon-day.

7 - Rest in the LORD, 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 in any wise to do evil.

9 - For evil doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

10 - For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be]: yes, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be].

11 - But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

12 - The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

13 - The Lord will laugh 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 poor and needy, [and] to slay such as are of upright deportment.

15 - Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.

16 - A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of many wicked.

17 - For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.

18 - The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.

19 - They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

20 - But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be] as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.

21 - The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth mercy, and giveth.

22 - For [such as are] blessed by him shall inherit the earth; and [they that are] cursed by him shall be cut off.

23 - The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

24 - Though he should fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth [him with] his hand.

25 - I have been young, and [now] am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

26 - [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed.

27 - Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.

28 - For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

29 - The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.

30 - The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.

31 - The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

32 - The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.

33 - The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.

34 - Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it].

35 - I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.

36 - Yet he passed away, and lo, he [was] not: yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.

37 - Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace.

38 - But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.

39 - But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their strength in the time of trouble.

40 - And the LORD will help them, and deliver them: he will deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
