^7 (A)Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
    ^(B)fret not yourself over the one who ^(C)prospers in his way,
    over the man who carries out evil devices!

^8 (D)Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath!
    ^(E)Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.
^9 (F)For the evildoers shall be cut off,
    but those who wait for the Lord shall ^(G)inherit the land.

¹⁰ In ^(H)just a little while, the wicked will be no more;
    though you look carefully at ^(I)his place, he will not be there.
¹¹ But ^(J)the meek shall inherit the land
    and delight themselves in ^(K)abundant peace.

²⁰ But the wicked will perish;
    the enemies of the Lord are like ^(A)the glory of the pastures;
    they vanish—like ^(B)smoke they vanish away.

^27 (A)Turn away from evil and do good;
    so shall you ^(B)dwell forever.
²⁸ For the Lord ^(C)loves justice;
    he will not forsake his ^(D)saints.
They are preserved forever,
    but the children of the wicked shall be ^(E)cut off.
²⁹ The righteous shall inherit the land
    and ^(F)dwell upon it forever.

^39 (A)The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
    he is their stronghold in ^(B)the time of trouble.
⁴⁰ The Lord helps them and ^(C)delivers them;
    ^(D)he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
    because they ^(E)take refuge in him.
