Psalm 37:7-9

The Voice

⁷ Be still. Be patient. Expect the Eternal to arrive and set things right.
    Don’t get upset when you see the worldly ones rising up the ladder.
    Don’t be bothered by those who are anchored in wicked ways.

⁸ So turn from anger. Don’t rage,
    and don’t worry—these ways frame the doorway to evil.
⁹ Besides, those who act from evil motives will be cut off from the land;
    but those who wait, hoping in the Eternal, will enjoy its riches.
