Psalm 37:3-11 MWT . . . Trust in and do good; reside in the earth in faithfulness and security. 4 Also, take exquisite delight in יהוה and he will give you the requests of your heart. 5 Roll upon your way, and rely upon him, and He himself will act. 6 And He will certainly bring forth your righteousness as the light itself, and your justice as the midday. 7 Keep silent before יהוה and wait longingly for him. Do not show yourself heated up at anyone seeming to have success in wickedness, at the man carrying out his own ideas. 8 Let anger alone and leave rage; Do not show yourself heated up only to do evil. 9 For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in are the ones that will possess the earth. 10 And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. 11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth forever, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
