诗篇37:
1（大卫的诗。）不要为作恶的，心怀不平，也不要向那行不义的，生出嫉妒。
2因为他们如草快被割下，又如青菜快要枯干。
3你当倚靠耶和华而行善。住在地上，以他的信实为粮。
4又要以耶和华为乐。他就将你心里所求的赐给你。
5当将你的事交托耶和华，并倚靠他，他就必成全。
6他要使你的公义，如光发出，使你的公平，明如正午。
7你当默然倚靠耶和华，耐性等候他。不要因那道路通达的，和那恶谋成就的，心怀不平。
8当止住怒气，离弃忿怒。不要心怀不平，以致作恶。
9因为作恶的，必被剪除。惟有等候耶和华的，必承受地土。
10还有片时，恶人要归于无有。你就是细察他的住处，也要归于无有。
11但谦卑人必承受地土，以丰盛的平安为乐。
12恶人设谋害义人，又向他咬牙。
13主要笑他，因见他受罚的日子将要来到。
14恶人已经弓上弦，刀出鞘，要打倒困苦穷乏的人，要杀害行动正直的人。
15他们的刀，必刺入自己的心，他们的弓，必被折断。
16一个义人所有的虽少，强过许多恶人的富余。
17因为恶人的膀臂，必被折断。但耶和华是扶持义人。
18耶和华知道完全人的日子。他们的产业，要存到永远。
19他们在急难的时候，不至羞愧，在饥荒的日子，必得饱足。
20恶人却要灭亡。耶和华的仇敌，要像羊羔的脂油。（或作像草地的华美）他们要消灭，要如烟消灭。
21恶人借贷而不偿还。义人却恩待人，并且施舍。
22蒙耶和华赐福的，必承受地土。被他咒诅的，必被剪除。
23义人的脚步，被耶和华立定。他的道路，耶和华也喜爱。
24他虽失脚，也不至全身仆倒。因为耶和华用手搀扶他。（或作搀扶他的手）
25我从前年幼，现在年老，却未见过义人被弃。也未见过他的后裔讨饭。
26他终日恩待人，借给人。他的后裔也蒙福。
27你当离恶行善，就可永远安居。
28因为耶和华喜爱公平，不撇弃他的圣民。他们永蒙保佑。但恶人的后裔，必被剪除。
29义人必承受地土，永居其上。
30义人的口谈论智慧，他的舌头讲说公平。
31神的律法在他心里。他的脚总不滑跌。
32恶人窥探义人，想要杀他。
33耶和华必不撇他在恶人手中，当审判的时候，也不定他的罪。
34你当等候耶和华，遵守他的道，他就抬举你，使你承受地土。恶人被剪除的时候，你必看见。
35我见过恶人大有势力，好像一根青翠树在本土生发。
36有人从那里经过，不料，他没有了。我也寻找他，却寻不着。
37你要细察那完全人，观看那正直人。因为和平人有好结局。
38至于犯法的人，必一同灭绝。恶人终必剪除。
39但义人得救，是由于耶和华。他在患难时作他们的营寨。
40耶和华帮助他们，解救他们。他解救他们脱离恶人，把他们救出来，因为他们投靠他。
1Don’t worry about the wickedor envy those who do wrong.
2For like grass, they soon fade away.Like spring flowers, they soon wither.
3Trust in the Lord and do good.Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
4Take delight in the Lord,and he will give you your heart’s desires.
5Commit everything you do to the Lord.Trust him, and he will help you.
6He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn,and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun.
7Be still in the presence of the Lord,and wait patiently for him to act.Don’t worry about evil people who prosperor fret about their wicked schemes.
9For the wicked will be destroyed,but those who trust in the Lord will possess the land.
10Soon the wicked will disappear.Though you look for them, they will be gone.
12The wicked plot against the godly;they snarl at them in defiance.
15But their swords will stab their own hearts,and their bows will be broken.
18Day by day the Lord takes care of the innocent,and they will receive an inheritance that lasts forever.
19They will not be disgraced in hard times;even in famine they will have more than enough.
20But the wicked will die.The Lord’s enemies are like flowers in a field—they will disappear like smoke.
21The wicked borrow and never repay,but the godly are generous givers.
22Those the Lord blesses will possess the land,but those he curses will die.
24Though they stumble, they will never fall,for the Lord holds them by the hand.
25Once I was young, and now I am old.Yet I have never seen the godly abandonedor their children begging for bread.
26The godly always give generous loans to others,and their children are a blessing.
27Turn from evil and do good,and you will live in the land forever.
28For the Lord loves justice,and he will never abandon the godly.He will keep them safe forever,but the children of the wicked will die.
29The godly will possess the landand will live there forever.
30The godly offer good counsel;they teach right from wrong.
31They have made God’s law their own,so they will never slip from his path.
32The wicked wait in ambush for the godly,looking for an excuse to kill them.
33But the Lord will not let the wicked succeedor let the godly be condemned when they are put on trial.
34Put your hope in the Lord.Travel steadily along his path.He will honor you by giving you the land.You will see the wicked destroyed.
35I have seen wicked and ruthless peopleflourishing like a tree in its native soil.
36But when I looked again, they were gone!Though I searched for them, I could not find them!
37Look at those who are honest and good,for a wonderful future awaits those who love peace.
38But the rebellious will be destroyed;they have no future.
39The Lord rescues the godly;he is their fortress in times of trouble.
40The Lord helps them,rescuing them from the wicked.He saves them,and they find shelter in him.
