Psalm 37:1-3
Good News Translation

The Destiny of the Wicked and of the Good[a]

37 Don't be worried on account of the wicked;
    don't be jealous of those who do wrong.
2 They will soon disappear like grass that dries up;
    they will die like plants that wither.

3 Trust in the Lord and do good;
    live in the land and be safe.
