Tehillim 37:7-14 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. Rest in Hashem, and wait patiently for Him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his derech, because of the ish who bringeth wicked schemes to pass.

8. Cease from anger, and forsake chemah (wrath); fret not thyself in any wise to do rah.

9. For evildoers shall be cut off; but those that wait upon Hashem, they shall inherit the Eretz (land).

10. For yet a little while, and the rasha shall not be; yes, thou shalt watch his place, and he will not be.

11. But the anavim (meek ones) shall inherit Eretz; and shall delight themselves in rov shalom (great peace; see Psa 119:165).

12. The rasha plotteth against the tzaddik, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

13. Adonoi shall laugh at him, for He seeth that his yom is coming.

14. The resha'im have drawn out the cherev, and have bent their keshet, to cast down the oni (poor) and evyon (needy), and to slay such as be yishrei derech (upright ones on the road, that walk uprightly).
