Security of Those Who Trust in the Lord, and Insecurity of the Wicked.
A Psalm of David.

Be not (B)envious toward wrongdoers.

And (D)fade like the green herb.
3 (E)Trust in the Lord and do good;
(F)Dwell in the land and [a](G)cultivate faithfulness.
4 (H)Delight yourself in the Lord;
And He will (I)give you the desires of your heart.

Trust also in Him, and He will do it.

And your judgment (L)as the noonday.
