New Testament

Psalms 37:29-40 Modern English Version (MEV)

29. The righteous will inherit the land,and dwell on it forever.

30. The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,and their tongue speaks justice.

31. The law of their God is in their heart;none of their steps will slip.

32. The wicked watch the righteous,and seek to kill them.

33. The Lord will not forsake them to their hand,nor condemn them when they are judged.

34. Hope in the Lord,and keep His way,and He will exalt you to inherit the land;when the wicked are cut off, you will see it.

35. I have seen the wicked in great power,and spreading himself like a luxuriant tree.

36. Yet he passed away, and he was not;I sought him, but he could not be found.

37. Mark the blameless man, and consider the upright,for the end of that man is peace.

38. But the transgressors will be destroyed together;the end of the wicked is to be cut off.

39. But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;He is their refuge in the time of distress.

40. The Lord will help them and deliver them;He will deliver them from the wicked,and save them, because they take refuge in Him.
