A Psalm of DavidH1732. FretH2734 not thyself because of evildoersH7489, neither be thou enviousH7065 against the workersH6213 of iniquityH5766.
For they shall soonH4120 be cut downH5243 like the grassH2682, and witherH5034 as the greenH3418 herbH1877.
TrustH982 in the LORDH3068, and doH6213 goodH2896; so shalt thou dwellH7931 in the landH776, and verilyH530 thou shalt be fedH7462. {verily: Heb. in truth, or, stableness}
DelightH6026 thyself also in the LORDH3068; and he shall giveH5414 thee the desiresH4862 of thine heartH3820.
CommitH1556 thy wayH1870 unto the LORDH3068; trustH982 also in him; and he shall bring it to passH6213. {Commit…: Heb. Roll thy way upon}
And he shall bring forthH3318 thy righteousnessH6664 as the lightH216, and thy judgmentH4941 as the noondayH6672.
RestH1826 in the LORDH3068, and wait patientlyH2342 for him: fretH2734 not thyself because of him who prosperethH6743 in his wayH1870, because of the manH376 who bringethH6213 wicked devicesH4209 to passH6213. {Rest in: Heb. Be silent to}
CeaseH7503 from angerH639, and forsakeH5800 wrathH2534: fretH2734 not thyself in any wiseH389 to do evilH7489.
For evildoersH7489 shall be cut offH3772: but those that waitH6960 upon the LORDH3068, they shall inheritH3423 the earthH776.
For yet a little whileH4592, and the wickedH7563 shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently considerH995 his placeH4725, and it shall not be.
But the meekH6035 shall inheritH3423 the earthH776; and shall delightH6026 themselves in the abundanceH7230 of peaceH7965.
The wickedH7563 plottethH2161 against the justH6662, and gnashethH2786 upon him with his teethH8127. {plotteth: or, practiseth}
The LordH136 shall laughH7832 at him: for he seethH7200 that his dayH3117 is comingH935.
The wickedH7563 have drawn outH6605 the swordH2719, and have bentH1869 their bowH7198, to cast downH5307 the poorH6041 and needyH34, and to slayH2873 such as be of uprightH3477 conversationH1870. {such…: Heb. the upright of way}
Their swordH2719 shall enterH935 into their own heartH3820, and their bowsH7198 shall be brokenH7665.
A littleH4592 that a righteous manH6662 hath is betterH2896 than the richesH1995 of manyH7227 wickedH7563.
For the armsH2220 of the wickedH7563 shall be brokenH7665: but the LORDH3068 upholdethH5564 the righteousH6662.
The LORDH3068 knowethH3045 the daysH3117 of the uprightH8549: and their inheritanceH5159 shall be for everH5769.
They shall not be ashamedH954 in the evilH7451 timeH6256: and in the daysH3117 of famineH7459 they shall be satisfiedH7646.
But the wickedH7563 shall perishH6, and the enemiesH341 of the LORDH3068 shall be as the fatH3368 of lambsH3733: they shall consumeH3615; into smokeH6227 shall they consume awayH3615. {the fat: Heb. the preciousness}
The wickedH7563 borrowethH3867, and payeth not againH7999: but the righteousH6662 sheweth mercyH2603, and givethH5414.
For such as be blessedH1288 of him shall inheritH3423 the earthH776; and they that be cursedH7043 of him shall be cut offH3772.
The stepsH4703 of a good manH1397 are orderedH3559 by the LORDH3068: and he delightethH2654 in his wayH1870. {ordered: or, established}
Though he fallH5307, he shall not be utterly cast downH2904: for the LORDH3068 upholdethH5564 him with his handH3027.
I have been youngH5288, and now am oldH2204; yet have I not seenH7200 the righteousH6662 forsakenH5800, nor his seedH2233 beggingH1245 breadH3899.
He is everH3117 mercifulH2603, and lendethH3867; and his seedH2233 is blessedH1293. {ever: Heb. all the day}
DepartH5493 from evilH7451, and doH6213 goodH2896; and dwellH7931 for evermoreH5769.
For the LORDH3068 lovethH157 judgmentH4941, and forsakethH5800 not his saintsH2623; they are preservedH8104 for everH5769: but the seedH2233 of the wickedH7563 shall be cut offH3772.
The righteousH6662 shall inheritH3423 the landH776, and dwellH7931 therein for everH5703.
The mouthH6310 of the righteousH6662 speakethH1897 wisdomH2451, and his tongueH3956 talkethH1696 of judgmentH4941.
The lawH8451 of his GodH430 is in his heartH3820; none of his stepsH838 shall slideH4571. {steps: or, goings}
The wickedH7563 watchethH6822 the righteousH6662, and seekethH1245 to slayH4191 him.
The LORDH3068 will not leaveH5800 him in his handH3027, nor condemnH7561 him when he is judgedH8199.
WaitH6960 on the LORDH3068, and keepH8104 his wayH1870, and he shall exaltH7311 thee to inheritH3423 the landH776: when the wickedH7563 are cut offH3772, thou shalt seeH7200 it.
I have seenH7200 the wickedH7563 in great powerH6184, and spreadingH6168 himself like a greenH7488 bay treeH249. {a green…: or, a green tree that groweth in his own soil}
Yet he passed awayH5674, and, lo, he was not: yea, I soughtH1245 him, but he could not be foundH4672.
MarkH8104 the perfectH8535 man, and beholdH7200 the uprightH3477: for the endH319 of that manH376 is peaceH7965.
But the transgressorsH6586 shall be destroyedH8045 togetherH3162: the endH319 of the wickedH7563 shall be cut offH3772.
But the salvationH8668 of the righteousH6662 is of the LORDH3068: he is their strengthH4581 in the timeH6256 of troubleH6869.
And the LORDH3068 shall helpH5826 them, and deliverH6403 them: he shall deliverH6403 them from the wickedH7563, and saveH3467 them, because they trustH2620 in him.

To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. I waitedH6960 patientlyH6960 for the LORDH3068; and he inclinedH5186 unto me, and heardH8085 my cryH7775. {I waited…: Heb. In waiting I waited}

For he saithH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971, and have robbedH8154 their treasuresH6259+H6264, and I have put downH3381 the inhabitantsH3427 like a valiantH47+H3524 man: {a valiant…: or, many people}

For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478; In returningH7729 and restH5183 shall ye be savedH3467; in quietnessH8252 and in confidenceH985 shall be your strengthH1369: and ye wouldH14 not.
And the kingH4428 shall doH6213 according to his willH7522; and he shall exaltH7311 himself, and magnifyH1431 himself above every godH410, and shall speakH1696 marvellous thingsH6381 against the GodH410 of godsH410, and shall prosperH6743 till the indignationH2195 be accomplishedH3615: for that that is determinedH2782 shall be doneH6213.
The LORDH3068 is goodH2896 unto them that waitH6960 for him, to the soulH5315 that seekethH1875 him.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 oneG3391 of hisG846 headsG2776 as it wereG5613 woundedG4969 toG1519 deathG2288; andG2532 hisG846 deadlyG2288 woundG4127 was healedG2323: andG2532 allG3650 the worldG1093 wonderedG2296 afterG3694+G1722 the beastG2342. {wounded: Gr. slain}
AndG2532 they worshippedG4352 the dragonG1404 whichG3739 gaveG1325 powerG1849 unto the beastG2342: andG2532 they worshippedG4352 the beastG2342, sayingG3004, WhoG5101 is likeG3664 unto the beastG2342? whoG5101 is ableG1410 to make warG4170 withG3326 himG846?
AndG2532 there was givenG1325 unto himG846 a mouthG4750 speakingG2980 great thingsG3173 andG2532 blasphemiesG988; andG2532 powerG1849 was givenG1325 unto himG846 to continueG4160 fortyG5062 and twoG1417 monthsG3376. {to continue: or, to make war}
AndG2532 he openedG455 hisG846 mouthG4750 inG1519 blasphemyG988 againstG4314 GodG2316, to blasphemeG987 hisG846 nameG3686, andG2532 hisG846 tabernacleG4633, andG2532 them that dwellG4637 inG1722 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 it was givenG1325 unto himG846 to makeG4160 warG4171 withG3326 the saintsG40, andG2532 to overcomeG3528 themG846: andG2532 powerG1849 was givenG1325 himG846 overG1909 allG3956 kindredsG5443, andG2532 tonguesG1100, andG2532 nationsG1484.
AndG2532 allG3956 that dwellG2730 uponG1909 the earthG1093 shall worshipG4352 himG846, whoseG3739 namesG3686 areG1125 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222 of the LambG721 slainG4969 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.
If any manG1536 haveG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191.
He thatG1536 leadethG4863 into captivityG161 shall goG5217 intoG1519 captivityG161: he thatG1536 killethG615 withG1722 the swordG3162 mustG1163 be killedG615 withG1722 the swordG3162. HereG5602 isG2076 the patienceG5281 andG2532 the faithG4102 of the saintsG40.
It is goodH2896 that a man should both hopeH3175+H2342 and quietly waitH1748 for the salvationH8668 of the LORDH3068.
For the visionH2377 is yet for an appointed timeH4150, but at the endH7093 it shall speakH6315, and not lieH3576: though it tarryH4102, waitH2442 for it; because it will surelyH935 comeH935, it will not tarryH309.
AndG1161 let usG1573 notG3361 be wearyG1573 in wellG2570 doingG4160: forG1063 in dueG2398 seasonG2540 we shall reapG2325, if we faintG1590 notG3361.
ForG1063 ye haveG2192 needG5532 of patienceG5281, thatG2443, after ye have doneG4160 the willG2307 of GodG2316, ye might receiveG2865 the promiseG1860.
ForG1063 yetG2089 a littleG3397 whileG3745+G3745, and he that shall comeG2064 will comeG2240, andG2532 willG5549 notG3756 tarryG5549.
Be patientG3114 thereforeG3767, brethrenG80, untoG2193 the comingG3952 of the LordG2962. BeholdG2400, the husbandmanG1092 waitethG1551 for the preciousG5093 fruitG2590 of the earthG1093, and hath long patienceG3114 forG1909 itG846, untilG2193+G302 he receiveG2983 the earlyG4406 andG2532 latterG3797 rainG5205. {Be…: or, Be long patient, or, Suffer with long patience}
BeG3114 yeG5210 alsoG2532 patientG3114; stablishG4741 yourG5216 heartsG2588: forG3754 the comingG3952 of the LordG2962 draweth nighG1448.
GrudgeG4727 notG3361 one against anotherG2596+G240, brethrenG80, lestG3363 ye be condemnedG2632: beholdG2400, the judgeG2923 standethG2476 beforeG4253 the doorG2374. {Grudge not: or, Groan, or, Grieve not}
TakeG2983, myG3450 brethrenG80, the prophetsG4396, whoG3739 have spokenG2980 in the nameG3686 of the LordG2962, for an exampleG5262 of suffering afflictionG2552, andG2532 of patienceG3115.
BeholdG2400, we count them happyG3106 which endureG5278. Ye have heardG191 of the patienceG5281 of JobG2492, andG2532 have seenG1492 the endG5056 of the LordG2962; thatG3754 the LordG2962 isG2076 very pitifulG4184, andG2532 of tender mercyG3629.
