And he shall lead out thy rightfulness as light, and thy doom as midday; (And he shall lead forth thy righteousness like the light, and thy judgement like the midday sun;)

be thou subject to the Lord, and pray thou him. Do not thou follow him, that hath prosperity in his way; (nor) a man doing unrightfulness. (be thou subject to the Lord, and wait thou for him. Do not thou follow a man, simply because he hath prospered along his way; nor a man doing unrighteousness, or wickedness.)

Cease thou of ire, and forsake strong vengeance; do not thou follow, that thou do wickedly. (Cease thou from anger, and abandon taking vengeance; do not thou follow after these things, so that thou do wickedly.)

He will make your righteous reward(A) shine like the dawn,(B)
    your vindication like the noonday sun.

    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.
