Psalms 37:12-20

The Short-Lived Triumph of the Wicked

Psalms 37:12-20
12
The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing against him his teeth.
13
The Lord doth laugh at him, For He hath seen that his day cometh.
14
A sword have the wicked opened, And they have trodden their bow, To cause to fall the poor and needy, To slaughter the upright of the way.
15
Their sword doth enter into their own heart, And their bows are shivered.
16
Better is the little of the righteous, Than the store of many wicked.
17
For the arms of the wicked are shivered, And Jehovah is sustaining the righteous.
18
Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect, And their inheritance is--to the age.
19
They are not ashamed in a time of evil, And in days of famine they are satisfied.
20
But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed.
