Psalm 37:1-11

"Fret not thyself because of evildoers,
neither be thou envious against
the workers of iniquity.
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass,
and wither as the green herb.

Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so shalt thou dwell in the land,
and verily thou shalt be fed.
Delight thyself also in the Lord;
and he shall give thee the desires of thy heart.

Commit thy way unto the Lord;
trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
And he shall bring forth
thy righteousness as the light,
and thy judgment as the noonday.

Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him:
fret not thyself because of him
who prospereth in his way,
because of the man
who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath:
fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
For evil doers shall be cut off:
but those that wait upon the Lord,
they shall inherit the earth.

For yet a little while,
and the wicked shall not be: 
yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place,
and it shall not be.

But the meek shall inherit the earth;
and shall delight themselves
in the abundance of peace.
