Psalms 37:27-34 MWT (God's name restored)
(27) Turn away from evil and do good, you will keep living and be secure forever. (28) For   יהוה   loves what is right and does not abandon his faithful people; they are preserved forever; but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. (29) The righteous will inherit the earth and live on it forever. (30) The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks judgment. (31) The Law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not wobble. (32) The wicked spies on the righteous and seeks to kill him. (33) will not leave him to the hand of that one, and he will not pronounce him wicked when he is being judged. (34) Wait on   יהוה   and keep His way; and He will exalt you to inherit the earth; you will see when the wicked are cut off.

Psalm 37:27-34 NWT
27 Turn away from what is bad and do what is good, And so reside to time indefinite. 28 For Jehovah ( ) is a lover of justice, And he will not leave his loyal ones. To time indefinite they will certainly be guarded; But as for the offspring of the wicked ones, they will indeed be cut off. 29 The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it. 30 The mouth of the righteous is the one that utters wisdom in an undertone, And his is the tongue that speaks justly. 31 The law of his God is in his heart; His steps will not wobble. 32 The wicked one is keeping on the watch for the righteous And is seeking to put him to death. 33 As for Jehovah, he will not leave him to the hand of that one, And he will not pronounce him wicked when he is being judged. 34 Hope in Jehovah ( ) and keep his way, And he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked ones are cut off, you will see [it].

(27) Depart from evil, and do good; And dwell for evermore. (28) For Jehovah ( ) loveth justice, And forsaketh not his saints; They are preserved for ever: But the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. (29) The righteous shall inherit the land, And dwell therein for ever. (30) The mouth of the righteous talketh of wisdom, And his tongue speaketh justice. (31) The law of his God is in his heart; None of his steps shall slide. (32) The wicked watcheth the righteous, And seeketh to slay him. (33) Jehovah will not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him when he is judged. (34) Wait for Jehovah ( ), and keep his way, And he will exalt thee to inherit the land: When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
