[1]A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
[2]For they shall soon wither like the grass, and fade as the green herb.
[3]Trust in 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and do good; dwell in the land, and cherish faithfulness.
[4]So shalt thou delight thyself in 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; and He shall give thee the petitions of thy heart.
[5]Commit thy way unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; trust also in Him, and He will bring it to pass.
[6]And He will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy right as the noonday.
[7]Resign thyself unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and 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.
[8]Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil-doing.
[9]For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait for 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, they shall inherit the land.
[10]And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more; yea, thou shalt look well at his place, and he is not.
[11]But the humble shall inherit the land, and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
[12]The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth at him with his teeth.
[13]The Lord doth laugh at him; for He seeth that his day is coming.
[14]The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as are upright in the way;
[15]Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
[16]Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.
[17]For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but YH upholdeth the righteous.
[18]𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 knoweth the days of them that are wholehearted; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
[19]They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
[20]For the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 shall be as the fat of lambs—they shall pass away in smoke, they shall pass away.
[21]The wicked borroweth, and payeth not; but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
[22]For such as are blessed of Him shall inherit the land; and they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.
[23]It is of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 that a man's goings are established; and He delighted in his way.
[24]Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 upholdeth his hand.
[25]I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
[26]All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
[27]Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
[28]Fo 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 loveth justice, and forsaketh not His saints; they are preserved for ever; but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
[29]The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
[30]The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh justice.
[31]The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps slide.
[32]The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
[33]𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 will not leave him in his hand, nor suffer him to be condemned when he is judged.
[34]Wait for 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and keep His way, and He will exalt thee to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
[35]I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a leafy tree in its native soil.
[36]But one passed by, and, lo, he was not; yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
[37]Mark the man of integrity, and behold the upright; for there is a future for the man of peace.
[38]But transgressors shall be destroyed together; the future of the wicked shall be cut off.
[39]But the salvation of the righteous is of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
[40]An 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 helpeth them, and delivereth them; He delivereth them from the wicked, and saveth them, because they have taken refuge in Him.
