Psalm 37

Instruction in Wisdom

Davidic.

Do[a] not be agitated by evildoers;
do not envy those who do wrong.(A)
For they wither quickly like grass
and wilt like tender green plants.(B)

Trust in the Lord and do what is good;(C)
dwell in the land and live securely.[b](D)
Take delight in the Lord,
and He will give you your heart’s desires.(E)
