Psalms 37:31-39

³¹The law of his God is in his heart; His footsteps shall not slip.

³²The wicked watcheth the righteous, And seeketh to slay him;

³³The Lord will not leave him in his hand, Nor suffer him to be condemned, when he is judged.

³⁴Trust in the LORD, and keep his way, And he will exalt thee to the possession of the land, Whilst thou shalt see the destruction of the wicked!

³⁵I have seen a wicked man in great power, And spreading himself like a green cedar;

³⁶But he passed away, and, lo! he was no more; Yea, I sought him, but he was not found.

³⁷Mark the righteous man, and behold the upright, That posterity is to the man of peace!

³⁸But transgressors will all be destroyed; The posterity of the wicked shall be rooted out.

³⁹The salvation of the just is from the LORD. He is their strength in the time of trouble.
