Bishops · الأصحاح 37
1 O f Dauid. Fret not thy selfe because of the vngodly: neither be thou enuious against the euyll doers.
2 For they shall soone be cut downe like the grasse: and be withered euen as the greene hearbe.
3 Put thou thy trust in God, and be doing good: dwell in the land, and feede in trueth.
4 Delight thou also in God: and he shall geue thee thy heartes desire.
5 Commit thy way vnto God: and put thy trust in hym, and he shall bryng it to passe.
6 He shall make thy righteousnesse appeare as cleare as the light: and thy iust dealing as the noone tyde.
7 Holde thee still in God, and wayte paciently vpon him: fret not thy selfe at him whose way doth prosper, at the man that doth abhominations.
8 Leaue of from wrath, and let go displeasure: fret not thy selfe, lest thou be moued to do euill.
9 For the malitious doers shalbe rooted out: and they that paciently wayte after God, they shall inherite the lande.
10 Looke at them yet a litle whyle, and the vngodly shalbe cleane gone: thou shalt looke after his place, and he shall not be there
11 But the meeke spirited shall possesse the earth: and shalbe delighted in the aboundaunce of peace.
12 The vngodly busieth his head all against the iust: and gnasheth vpon him with his teeth.
13 The Lorde shall laugh him to scorne: for he seeth that his day is comming.
14 The vngodly haue drawen out the sworde, and haue bended their bowe: to cast downe the poore and needie, and to slay such as be of right conuersation.
15 But their sworde shal go thorow their owne heart: & their bow shalbe broken.
16 A small thing that the righteous hath: is better then great riches of ye vngodly.
17 For the armes of the vngodly shalbe broken: and God vpholdeth the righteous.
18 God knoweth the dayes of them that be perfect: and their inheritaunce shall endure for euer.
19 They shall not be confounded in the perilous tyme: and in the dayes of dearth they shall haue inough.
20 As for the vngodly they shall perishe, and the enemies of God shall consume as the fat of lambes: yea, euen with the smoke they shall vanishe away.
21 The vngodly boroweth and payeth not agayne: but the righteous geueth mercifully and liberally.
22 Suche as be blessed of God shall possesse the lande: and they that be cursed of hym, shalbe rooted out.
23 The pathes of man is directed by God: and his way pleaseth.
24 Though he fall, he shall not be vndone: for God vpholdeth him with his hande.
25 I haue ben a young chylde, and nowe I am olde: and yet sawe I neuer the righteous forsaken, nor his seede begyng bread.
26 The righteous is euer mercifull and lendeth: and his seede is blessed.
27 Flee from euill & do good: and dwell for euer.
28 For God loueth iudgement, he forsaketh not his saintes: they are preserued for euermore, but the seede of the vngodlye shalbe rooted vp.
29 The righteous shal inherite the land: and dwell therin for euer.
30 The mouth of the righteous is exercised in wysdome: and his tongue wyll be talking of iudgement.
31 The lawe of his God is in his heart: therfore his feete shall not slide.
32 The vngodly spyeth the righteous: and seeketh occasion to slay hym.
33 God wyll not leaue him in his hande: nor suffer hym to be condemned when he is iudged.
34 Wayte thou on God & kepe his way, and he wyll promote thee, that thou mayest possesse the lande: when the vngodly shalbe cut of, thou shalt see it.
35 I my selfe haue seene the vngodly in great power: and florishing lyke a greene bay tree.
36 And he vanished away, so that he could be no more seene: I sought hym, but he coulde no where be founde.
37 Marke hym that is perfect, and beholde him that is iust: for the ende of suche a man is peace.
38 As for wicked transgressours, they shalbe destroyed all together: and the ende of the vngodly shalbe rooted vp at the last.
39 But saluation of the righteous commeth of God: whiche is also their strength in time of trouble.
40 And God wyll ayde them and deliuer them, he wyl deliuer them from the vngodly: and he wyll saue them, because they put their trust in him.
