Chapter 36

¹ A psalm for David himself. Be not emulous of evildoers; nor envy them that work iniquity.
² For they shall shortly wither away as grass, and as the green herbs shall quickly fall.
³ Trust in the Lord, and do good, and dwell in the land, and thou shalt be fed with its riches.
⁴ Delight in the Lord, and he will give thee the requests of thy heart.
⁵ Commit thy way to the Lord, and trust in him, and he will do it.
⁶ And he will bring forth thy justice as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
⁷ Be subject to the Lord and pray to him Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things.
⁸ Cease from anger, and leave rage; have no emulation to do evil.
⁹ For the evildoers shall be cut off : but they that wait upon the Lord shall inherit the land.
¹⁰ For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be : and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it.
¹¹ But the meek shall inherit the land, and shall delight in abundance of peace.
¹² The sinner shall watch the just man : and shall gnash upon him with his teeth.
¹³ But the Lord shall laugh at him : for he foreseeth that his day shall come.
¹⁴ The wicked have drawn out the sword : they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart.
¹⁵ Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken.
¹⁶ Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.
¹⁷ For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
¹⁸ The Lord knoweth the days of undefiled; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
¹⁹ They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled :
²⁰ because the wicked shall perish. And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke.
²¹ The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; but the just sheweth mercy and shall give.
²² For such as bless him shall inherit the land : but such as curse him shall perish.
²³ With the Lord shall the steps of a man be directed, and he shall like well his way.
²⁴ When he shall fall he shall not be bruised, for the Lord putteth his hand under him.
²⁵ I have been young, and now am old; and I have not seen the just forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
²⁶ He sheweth mercy, and lendeth all the day long; and his seed shall be in blessing.
²⁷ Decline from evil and do good, and dwell for ever and ever.
²⁸ For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints : they shall be preserved for ever. The unjust shall be punished, and the seed of the wicked shall perish.
²⁹ But the just shall inherit the land, and shall dwell therein for evermore.
³⁰ The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom : and his tongue shall speak judgment.
³¹ The law of his God is in his heart, and his steps shall not be supplanted.
³² The wicked watcheth the just man, and seeketh to put him to death,
³³ But the Lord will not leave in his hands; nor condemn him when he shall be judged.
³⁴ Expect the Lord and keep his way : and he will exalt thee to inherit the land : when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see.
³⁵ I have seen the wicked highly exalted, and lifted up like the cedars of Libanus.
³⁶ And I passed by, and lo, he was not : and I sought him and his place was not found.
³⁷ Keep innocence, and behold justice : for there are remnants for the peaceable man.
³⁸ But the unjust shall be destroyed together : the remnants of the wicked shall perish.
³⁹ But the salvation of the just is from the Lord, and he is their protector in the time of trouble.
⁴⁰ And the Lord will help them and deliver them : and he will rescue them from the wicked, and save them, because they have hoped in him.
