Psalms 37:11-18

¹¹But the gentle will have the earth for their heritage; they will take their delight in peace without measure.

¹²The sinner has evil designs against the upright, lifting up the voice of wrath against him.

¹³He will be laughed at by the Lord, who sees that his day is coming.

¹⁴The evil-doers have taken out their swords, their bows are bent; for crushing the poor, and to put to death those who are upright in their ways.

¹⁵But their swords will be turned into their hearts, and their bows will be broken.

¹⁶The little which the good man has is better than the wealth of evil-doers.

¹⁷For the arms of the evil-doers will be broken: but the Lord is the support of the good.

¹⁸The days of the upright are numbered by the Lord, and their heritage will be for ever.
