Psalms 37:30-40

Leeser(i) 30 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh what is just. 31 The law of his God is in his heart: none of his steps shall slip. 32 The wicked looketh out for the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. 33 The Lord will not leave him in his hand, and will not condemn him when he is judged. 34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, shalt thou look on. 35 I have seen the wicked terrible in power, and striking root like a green tree in its native soil. 36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was no more: and I sought him, but he could not be found. 37 Observe the perfect man, and behold the upright; for there is a happy future for the man of peace. 38 But the transgressors are destroyed together: the future of the wicked is cut off. 39 And the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord: he is their strong-hold in the time of distress. 40 And the Lord helpeth them, and delivereth them; he will deliver them from the wicked, and save them; because they have put their trust in him.
