Psalm 37
Noli aemulari
1
Fret not thyself because of the ungodly *
neither be thou envious against the evil-doers.
2
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass *
and be withered even as the green herb.
3
Put thou thy trust in the Lord, and be doing good *
dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4
Delight thou in the Lord *
and he shall give thee thy heart’s desire.
5
Commit thy way unto the Lord, and put thy trust in him *
and he shall bring it to pass.
6
He shall make thy righteousness as clear as the light *
and thy just dealing as the noon-day.
