Psalm 37

Noli aemulari
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.
7
Hold thee still in the Lord, and abide patiently upon him *
but grieve not thyself at him whose way doth prosper, against the man that doeth after evil counsels.
8
Leave off from wrath, and let go displeasure *
fret not thyself, else shalt thou be moved to do evil.
9
Wicked doers shall be rooted out *
and they that patiently abide the Lord, those shall inherit the land.
10
Yet a little while, and the ungodly shall be clean gone *
thou shalt look after his place, and he shall be away.
