Psalm 37:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible

7 Wait patiently upon the Lord, and hope in him: fret not thyself for him [a]which prospereth in his way, nor for the man that bringeth his enterprises to pass.

8 Cease from anger, and leave off wrath: fret not thyself [b]also to do evil.

9 For evildoers shall be cut off, and they that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the land.
