RF PSA 37:1 By David.
STANZA 1.
Let not the wicked attract:—
Nor envy their practice of sin;
RF PSA 37:2 For like grass they are quickly cut down,
And they wither, as do the green leaves.
RF PSA 37:3 But trust in the LORD and do good,
Rest safe in the land and be fed,
RF PSA 37:4 And make your delight in the LORD,
Who will grant the desire of your heart.
RF PSA 37:5 Wind on your path up to the LORD;
And trust Him because He can save,
RF PSA 37:6 And will bring out your right like the dawn,
Your acquittal like noon of the day!
RF PSA 37:7 Resign all, and rely on the LORD,—
Fret not at the prospering path,
Of the man who will practice deceit.
RF PSA 37:8 Cease anger, and leave off from wrath,
Nor be fretful, except against wrong;
RF PSA 37:9 For the wicked will all be cut off,
And who trust in the LORD hold the Land.
RF PSA 37:10 Wait awhile, and the bad will be not!
While you look at him, his home is gone!
RF PSA 37:11 But the kind will inherit the land, And enjoy its perfection of peace.
RF PSA 37:12 Tho' the wicked may rage at the good,
And gnash with their teeth against them.
RF PSA 37:13 The Almighty still laughs them to scorn,
For He sees that their day will come on:
RF PSA 37:14 STANZA 2.
The wicked draw sword, and bend bow,
To strike down the feeble and poor,
And murder the good on the path;—
RF PSA 37:15 But their sword will come to their own hearts,
And their bows will destroy their own selves;
RF PSA 37:16 And what little the righteous possess,
Is more than the wealth of the bad.
RF PSA 37:17 For the arms of the bad will be smashed,
But the LORD will the righteous support.
RF PSA 37:18 Of the honest the LORD knows the days,
Their possessions for ever will be,
RF PSA 37:19 Nor fail in the time of distress,
But in periods of famine be fed,
RF PSA 37:20 While the wicked will wither away,
And who hate the LORD, like a parched field
Will vanish in smoke and dissolve!
RF PSA 37:21 The bad borrows, and does not repay,
The righteous is generous and gives.
RF PSA 37:22 Whom He blesses inherit the earth,
And those whom He curses decay.
RF PSA 37:23 The man who steps on with the LORD,
Is safe, and his pathway is smooth;
RF PSA 37:24 If he stumbles he is not cast down,
For the LORD will hold him by His hand.
RF PSA 37:25 I have been young,—and now I am old,
And have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Nor his children go begging their bread;
RF PSA 37:26 All day he was kindly, and lent, And so his descendants are blest.
RF PSA 37:27 Turn away from the wrong and do right,
And eternal your dwelling will be;
RF PSA 37:28 For the just are beloved by the LORD,
And He never abandons His Saints;
For eternity they are preserved,
But the Race of the bad is destroyed;
RF PSA 37:29 For the good will inherit the earth,
And upon it for ever will dwell.
RF PSA 37:30 For the mouth of the good utters sense,
And his tongue speaks for justice alone.
RF PSA 37:31 With the Laws of his GOD in his heart,
He never will cease to advance.
RF PSA 37:32 STANZA 3.
The wicked lay wait for the good,
And seek to procure his death.
RF PSA 37:33 But the LORD will not leave to their hand,
Nor let him be wronged by their judge.
RF PSA 37:34 Keep the path of the LORD and have hope,
He will help you to conquer the land.
And to cut off the wicked you fear.
RF PSA 37:35 I have seen how the wicked succeed,
And spread like a green growing tree;
RF PSA 37:36 Then I passed and I saw he was not,
And I sought him, but nowhere could find.
RF PSA 37:37 Watch the True, and regard the Upright,
For the end of those men is in peace.
RF PSA 37:38 But Transgressors will perish together,—
The future of sinners is wreck.
RF PSA 37:39 The righteous are served by the LORD,—
Their fortress in time of distress,—
RF PSA 37:40 JEHOVAH assists and protects,
And saves from the hand of the bad,
All who trust upon Him.
