thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
|

2 | For they shall soon
be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
|

in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
|

in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
|

5 | Commit thy way unto
the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
|
H · G · S |
6 | And he shall bring
forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
|

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.
|
H · G · S |

forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the
earth.

11 | But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight
themselves in the abundance of peace.

drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and

15 | Their sword shall
enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
|
H · G · S |

perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of
lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
|

but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
|
H · G · S |

be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be
cursed of him shall be cut off.
|

good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
|

24 | Though he fall, he
shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with

and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor
his seed begging bread.

judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever:
but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
|
H · G · S |
29 | The righteous shall
inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
|
H · G · S |
30 | The mouth of the
righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
|
H · G · S |
31 | The law of his God
is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
|
H · G · S |
32 | The wicked watcheth
the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
|

leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
|

and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the

wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
|

man, and behold the upright: for the end of that
man is peace.
|

transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall
be cut off.
|
H · G · S |
39 | But the salvation of
the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in
the time of trouble.
|
