Psalms 37:13-23

¹³But the Lord shall laugh him to scorne: for he seeth, that his day is comming.

¹⁴The wicked haue drawen their sworde, and haue bent their bowe, to cast downe the poore and needie, and to slay such as be of vpright conuersation.

¹⁵But their sword shall enter into their owne heart, and their bowes shalbe broken.

¹⁶A small thing vnto the iust man is better, then great riches to the wicked and mightie.

¹⁷For the armes of the wicked shall be broken: but the Lord vpholdeth the iust men.

¹⁸The Lord knoweth the dayes of vpright men, and their inheritance shall bee perpetuall.

¹⁹They shall not be confounded in the perilous time, and in the daies of famine they shall haue ynough.

²⁰But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be consumed as the fatte of lambes: euen with the smoke shall they consume away.

²¹The wicked boroweth and payeth not againe. but the righteous is mercifull, and giueth.

²²For such as be blessed of God, shall inherite the lande, and they that be cursed of him, shalbe cut off.

²³The pathes of man are directed by the Lord: for he loueth his way.
