Psalm 37

Part I

Noli æmulari
1
Do not fret yourself because of evildoers; *
do not be jealous of those who do wrong.
2
For they shall soon wither like the grass, *
and like the green grass fade away.
3
Put your trust in the Lord and do good; *
dwell in the land and feed on its riches.
4
Take delight in the Lord, *
and he shall give you your heart’s desire.
5
Commit your way to the Lord and put your trust in him, *
and he will bring it to pass.
6
He will make your righteousness as clear as the light *
and your just dealing as the noonday.
