Psalm 37:1-9
Psalm 37
A psalm of David.
Don’t be upset because of sinful people.
Don’t be jealous of those who do wrong.
Like grass, they will soon dry up.
Like green plants, they will soon die.
Trust in the Lord and do good.
Then you will live in the land and enjoy its food.
Find your delight in the Lord.
Then he will give you everything your heart really wants.
Commit your life to the Lord.
Here is what he will do if you trust in him.
He will make the reward for your godly life shine like the dawn.
He will make the proof of your honest life shine like the sun at noon.
Be still and wait patiently for the Lord to act.
Don’t be upset when other people succeed.
Don’t be upset when they carry out their evil plans.
Turn away from anger and don’t give in to wrath.
Don’t be upset, because that only leads to evil.
Sinful people will be destroyed.
But those who put their hope in the Lord will receive the land.
