Psalms 37:27-40

²⁷Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell to the age.

²⁸For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.

²⁹The righteous possess the land, And they dwell for ever on it.

³⁰The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, And his tongue speaketh judgment.

³¹The law of his God is his heart, His steps do not slide.

³²The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking to put him to death.

³³Jehovah doth not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in his being judged.

³⁴Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off — thou seest!

³⁵I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green native plant,

³⁶And he passeth away, and lo, he is not, And I seek him, and he is not found!

³⁷Observe the perfect, and see the upright, For the latter end of each is peace.

³⁸And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off.

³⁹And the salvation of the righteous is from Jehovah, Their strong place in a time of adversity.

⁴⁰And Jehovah doth help them and deliver them, He delivereth them from the wicked, And saveth them, Because they trusted in Him!
