Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him.
Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Psalms 37:7 in context
Psalms 37:4–10
4
Also delight yourself in the LORD,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5
Commit your way to the LORD.
Trust also in him, and he will do this:
6
he will make your righteousness shine out like light,
and your justice as the noon day sun.
7
Selected verse
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him.
Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath.
Don’t fret; it leads only to evildoing.
9
For evildoers shall be cut off,
but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more.
Yes, though you look for his place, he isn’t there.
