1. A Psalm of David.
2. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3. Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
5. Commit thy way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he will bring it to pass.
6. And he will bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noon-day.
7. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
8. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
9. For evil doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
10. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yes, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
