ASV_Strong : Psalms 37
1.
2. For they shall soon[H4120] be cut down[H5243] like the grass[H2682], And wither[H5034] as the green[H3418] herb[H1877].
3. Trust[H982] in Jehovah[H3068], and do[H6213] good[H2896]; Dwell[H7931] in the land[H776], and feed[H7462] on his faithfulness[H530].
4. Delight[H6026] thyself also in Jehovah[H3068]; And he will give[H5414] thee the desires[H4862] of thy heart[H3820].
5. Commit[H1556] thy way[H1870] unto Jehovah[H3068]; Trust[H982] also in him[H6213], and he will bring it to pass.
6. And he will make thy righteousness[H6664] to go forth[H3318] as the light[H216], And thy justice[H4941] as the noon-day[H6672].
7. Rest[H1826] in Jehovah[H3068], and wait patiently[H2342] for him[H2734]: Fret not thyself because of him who prospereth[H6743] in his way[H1870], Because of the man[H376] who bringeth[H6213] wicked devices[H4209] to pass[H6213].
8. Cease[H7503] from anger[H639], and forsake[H5800] wrath[H2534]: Fret[H2734] not thyself[H389], it tendeth only to evil-doing[H7489].
9. For evil-doers[H7489] shall be cut off[H3772]; But those that wait[H6960] for Jehovah[H3068], they shall inherit[H3423] the land[H776].
10. For yet a little while[H4592], and the wicked[H7563] shall not be[H995]: Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place[H4725], and he shall not be.
11. But the meek[H6035] shall inherit[H3423] the land[H776], And shall delight[H6026] themselves in the abundance[H7230] of peace[H7965].
12. The wicked[H7563] plotteth[H2161] against the just[H6662], And gnasheth[H2786] upon him with his teeth[H8127].
13. The Lord[H136] will laugh[H7832] at him[H7200]; For he seeth that his day[H3117] is coming[H935].
14. The wicked[H7563] have drawn out[H6605] the sword[H2719], and have bent[H1869] their bow[H7198], To cast down[H5307] the poor[H6041] and needy[H34], To slay[H2873] such as are upright[H3477] in the way[H1870].
15. Their sword[H2719] shall enter[H935] into their own heart[H3820], And their bows[H7198] shall be broken[H7665].
16. Better[H2896] is a little[H4592] that the righteous[H6662] hath Than the abundance[H1995] of many[H7227] wicked[H7563].
17. For the arms[H2220] of the wicked[H7563] shall be broken[H7665]; But Jehovah[H3068] upholdeth[H5564] the righteous[H6662].
18. Jehovah[H3068] knoweth[H3045] the days[H3117] of the perfect[H8549]; And their inheritance[H5159] shall be for ever[H5769].
19. They shall not be put to shame[H954] in the time[H6256] of evil[H7451]; And in the days[H3117] of famine[H7459] they shall be satisfied[H7646].
20. But the wicked[H7563] shall perish[H6], And the enemies[H341] of Jehovah[H3068] shall be as the fat[H3368] of lambs[H3733]: They shall consume[H3615]; in smoke[H6227] shall they consume away[H3615].
21. The wicked[H7563] borroweth[H3867], and payeth not again[H7999]; But the righteous[H6662] dealeth graciously[H2603], and giveth[H5414].
22. For such as are blessed[H1288] of him shall inherit[H3423] the land[H776]; And they that are cursed[H7043] of him shall be cut off[H3772].
23. A man[H1397]'s goings[H4703] are established[H3559] of Jehovah[H3068]; And he delighteth[H2654] in his way[H1870].
24. Though he fall[H5307], he shall not be utterly cast down[H2904]; For Jehovah[H3068] upholdeth[H5564] him with his hand[H3027].
25. I have been young[H5288], and now am old[H2204]; Yet have I not seen[H7200] the righteous[H6662] forsaken[H5800], Nor his seed[H2233] begging[H1245] bread[H3899].
26. All the day long[H3117] he dealeth graciously[H2603], and lendeth[H3867]; And his seed[H2233] is blessed[H1293].
27. Depart[H5493] from evil[H7451], and do[H6213] good[H2896]; And dwell[H7931] for evermore[H5769].
28. For Jehovah[H3068] loveth[H157] justice[H4941], And forsaketh[H5800] not his saints[H2623]; They are preserved[H8104] for ever[H5769]: But the seed[H2233] of the wicked[H7563] shall be cut off[H3772].
29. The righteous[H6662] shall inherit[H3423] the land[H776], And dwell[H7931] therein for ever[H5703].
30. The mouth[H6310] of the righteous[H6662] talketh[H1696] of wisdom[H2451], And his tongue[H3956] speaketh[H1897] justice[H4941].
31. The law[H8451] of his God[H430] is in his heart[H3820]; None of his steps[H838] shall slide[H4571].
32. The wicked[H7563] watcheth[H6822] the righteous[H6662], And seeketh[H1245] to slay him[H4191].
33. Jehovah[H3068] will not leave[H5800] him in his hand[H3027], Nor condemn[H7561] him when he is judged[H8199].
34. Wait[H6960] for Jehovah[H3068], and keep[H8104] his way[H1870], And he will exalt[H7311] thee to inherit[H3423] the land[H776]: When the wicked[H7563] are cut off[H3772], thou shalt see it[H7200].
35. I have seen[H7200] the wicked[H7563] in great power[H6184], And spreading[H6168] himself like a green[H7488] tree in its native soil[H249].
36. But one passed by[H5674], and[H1245], lo, he was not: Yea, I sought him[H4672], but he could not be found.
37. 480[H8104] the perfect[H8535] man[H7200], and behold the upright[H3477]; For there is a happy end[H319] to the man[H376] of peace[H7965].
38. As for transgressors[H6586], they shall be destroyed[H8045] together[H3162]; The end[H319] of the wicked[H7563] shall be cut off[H3772].
39. But the salvation[H8668] of the righteous[H6662] is of Jehovah[H3068]; He is their stronghold[H4581] in the time[H6256] of trouble[H6869].
40. And Jehovah[H3068] helpeth[H5826] them[H6403], and rescueth them[H6403]; He rescueth them from the wicked[H7563], and saveth[H3467] them[H2620], Because they have taken refuge in him.
