Psalm 37:3-9
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)Trust in the Lord and do good;
(B)Live in the land and [a](C)cultivate faithfulness.
4 (D)Delight yourself in the Lord;
And He will (E)give you the desires of your heart.
5 (F)Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
6 He will bring out (G)your righteousness as the light,
And your judgment (H)as the noonday.
7 [b]Rest in the Lord and (I)wait [c]patiently for Him;
(J)Do not get upset because of one who is (K)successful in his way,
Because of the person who carries out wicked schemes.
8 Cease from anger and (L)abandon wrath;
Do not get upset; it leads only to evildoing.
9 For (M)evildoers will be eliminated,
But those who wait for the Lord, they will (N)inherit the land.
