Psalms 37:5-11

⁵Commit thy way to the LORD; Trust in him, and he will give thee success!

⁶He will cause thy justice to shine forth like the light, And thy righteousness like the noonday's brightness.

⁷Hope thou patiently on the LORD, And in him place thy trust! Be not angry on account of the prosperous,—On account of him that deviseth deceit!

⁸Cease from anger; give not way to wrath; Be not provoked, so as to do evil!

⁹For evil-doers shall be rooted out; But they who trust in the LORD, they shall inherit the land.

¹⁰Yet a little while, and the wicked shall be no more; Thou mayst look for his place, and he will not be found.

¹¹But the meek shall inherit the land, And delight themselves in the fulness of prosperity.
