36:7. Be subject to the Lord and pray to him. Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things. 36:8. Cease from anger, and leave rage; have no emulation to do evil. 36:9. For evildoers shall be cut off: but they that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the land. 36:10. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it. 36:11. But the meek shall inherit the land, and shall delight in abundance of peace. 36:12. The sinner shall watch the just man: and shall gnash upon him with his teeth. 36:13. But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foreseeth that his day shall come. 36:14. The wicked have drawn out the sword: they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart. 36:15. Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken. 36:16. Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked. 36:17. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just. 36:18. The Lord knoweth the days of the undefiled; and their inheritance shall be for ever. 36:19. They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled: 36:20. Because the wicked shall perish. And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke. 36:21. The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; but the just sheweth mercy and shall give. 36:22. For such as bless him shall inherit the land: but such as curse him shall perish. 36:23. With the Lord shall the steps of a man be directed, and he shall like well his way. 36:24. When he shall fall he shall not be bruised, for the Lord putteth his hand under him. 36:25. I have been young and now am old; and I have not seen the just forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread. 36:26. He sheweth mercy, and lendeth all the day long; and his seed shall be in blessing. 36:27. Decline from evil and do good, and dwell for ever and ever. 36:28. For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints: they shall be preserved for ever. The unjust shall be punished, and the seed of the wicked shall perish. 36:29. But the just shall inherit the land, and shall dwell therein for evermore. 36:30. The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom: and his tongue shall speak judgment. 36:31. The law of his God is in his heart, and his steps shall not be supplanted. 36:32. The wicked watcheth the just man, and seeketh to put him to death, 36:33. But the Lord will not leave him in his hands; nor condemn him when he shall be judged. 36:34. Expect the Lord and keep his way: and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see. 36:35. I have seen the wicked highly exalted, and lifted up like the cedars of Libanus. 36:36. And I passed by, and lo, he was not: and I sought him and his place was not found.
