Psalms 37:1-40

1 By David. Neither inflame because of vilifiers nor envious against workers of wickedness. 2 For they are quickly clipped as the grass and wither as the green sprout. 3 Confide in Yah Veh and work good; thus you tabernacle in the land and tend to trustworthiness. 4 And delight yourself in Yah Veh and he gives you the requests of your heart. 5 Roll your way to Yah Veh; confide in him; and he works 6 and brings forth your justness as the light and your judgment as the noonday. 7 Be still in Yah Veh and writhe for him; inflame not because of him who prospers in his way - because of the man who works intrigue. 8 Slacken wrath and forsake fury; inflame not to vilify. 9 For vilifiers are cut off; and they who await Yah Veh possess the earth. 10 For yet a little, and the wicked are not; yes, discern his place and it is not: 11 and the humble possess the earth; and delight themselves in the abundance of shalom. 12 The wicked intrigues against the just and gnashes on him with his teeth. 13 Adonay laughs at him; for he sees his day coming. 14 The wicked draw the sword and bend their bow to fell the humble and needy and to slaughter the straight of way. 15 Their sword enters their own heart - their bows break. 16 Better is the little of the just than the abundance of many wicked. 17 For the arms of the wicked break and Yah Veh upholds the just. 18 Yah Veh knows the days of the integrious - that their inheritance is eternal. 19 They shame not in the evil time; they satiate in the days of famine. 20 But the wicked destruct and the enemies of Yah Veh, as the esteem of rams, are finished off - into smoke are finished off. 21 The wicked borrows and shalams not and the just grants charism and gives: 22 for his blessed possess the earth; and his abased are cut off. 23 The paces of the mighty are established by Yah Veh; and he delights in his way: 24 though he falls, he is not cast down for Yah Veh upholds him with his hand. 25 I was a lad and am aged; yet I neither saw the just forsaken nor his seed seeking bread: 26 all days he grants charism and lends; and his seed is for a blessing. 27 Turn from evil and work good; and tabernacle eternally. 28 For Yah Veh loves judgment and forsakes not his mercied - guarded eternally; and the seed of the wicked is cut off. 29 The just possess the land and tabernacle therein eternally. 30 The mouth of the just meditates wisdom and his tongue words judgment. 31 The torah of his Elohim is in his heart; none of his steps waver. 32 The wicked watches for the just and seeks to deathify him. 33 Yah Veh neither forsakes him in his hand, nor judges him wicked when he is judged. 34 Await Yah Veh and guard his way and he exalts you to possess the land; when the wicked are cut off, you see. 35 I saw the wicked tyrant stripped naked as a green native; 36 yet he passes away; and behold, he is not; yes, I seek him, but find him not. 37 Regard the integrious and see the straight; for the finality of that man is shalom. 38 The rebels desolate together - the finality of the wicked is cut off; 39 the salvation of the just is of Yah Veh - their stronghold in the time of tribulation. 40 Yah Veh helps them and slips them away - slips them away from the wicked and saves them, because they seek refuge in him.
