Psalms 37:2


Psalms 37:1 Psalms 37:2 (KJV) Psalms 37:3
[A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
