Psalms 37:4-9 in American Standard Version (1901)

4 Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
5 Commit thy way unto Jehovah; Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.
6 And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noonday.
7 Rest in Jehovah, 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, it tendeth only to evil-doing.
9 For evil-doers shall be cut off; But those that wait for Jehovah, they shall inherit the land.

Psalms 37:4-9 in Brenton Septuagint Translation

4 For there is no health in my flesh because of thine anger; there is no peace to my bones because of my sins.
5 For my transgressions have gone over mine head: they have pressed heavily upon me like a weighty burden.
6 My bruises have become noisome and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
7 I have been wretched and bowed down continually: I went with a mourning countenance all the day.
8 For my soul is filled with mockings; and there is no health in my flesh.
9 I have been afflicted and brought down exceedingly: I have roared for the groaning of my heart.
