He will spread out righteousness for you
    as a sunrise spreads radiance over the land;
    He will deliver justice for you into the light of the high sun.

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.

So turn from anger. Don’t rage,
    and don’t worry—these ways frame the doorway to evil.

    your vindication like the noonday sun.

Be still(C) before the Lord
    and wait patiently(D) for him;
do not fret(E) when people succeed in their ways,(F)
    when they carry out their wicked schemes.(G)

Refrain from anger(H) and turn from wrath;
    do not fret(I)—it leads only to evil.
