YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
By
David.
Do
not
fret because of evil
doers
, Be not
envious against doers
of iniquity ,
Fret not
thyself
because of evildoers
, neither
be thou
envious against the
workers
of iniquity .
For as
grass
speedily
they are
cut off
, And as the greenness
of
the
tender
grass
do
fade
.
For they shall
soon
be
cut down
like
the
grass
, and wither
as the green
herb
.
Trust in Jehovah
, and do good ,
Dwell `
in '
the land, and enjoy
faithfulness,
Trust in the
LORD
, and do good ;
so
shalt
thou
dwell in the land, and verily
thou
shalt
be
fed.
And
delight thyself on
Jehovah,
And He giveth
to
thee the petitions
of thy
heart.
Delight thyself also
in
the
LORD:
and he shall
give
thee the desires
of thine
heart.
Roll
on
Jehovah
thy way ,
And
trust upon
Him ,
and He worketh,
Commit
thy way unto
the
LORD;
trust also
in
him ;
and he shall
bring
it
to
pass.
And hath
brought
out
as
light
thy righteousness, And thy judgment as noon-day
.
And he
shall
bring
forth
thy righteousness as
the
light
, and thy judgment as the
noonday
.
Be
silent
for
Jehovah
, and stay
thyself
for Him ,
Do
not
fret because of him Who is
making
prosperous
his way, Because of a
man doing
wicked devices.
Rest
in
the
LORD
, and wait
patiently
for him :
fret not
thyself
because of him who prospereth
in
his way, because of the
man who
bringeth
wicked devices to
pass
.
Desist
from anger, and forsake fury,
Fret not thyself only
to do evil.
Cease
from anger, and forsake wrath:
fret not thyself in
any
wise
to do evil.
For evil
doers
are
cut off ,
As
to
those waiting
on
Jehovah
, they possess
the land
.
For evildoers
shall
be
cut off :
but
those that
wait
upon
the
LORD
, they shall
inherit
the earth
.
And
yet a little, and the wicked is
not, And
thou hast
considered
his place, and it is
not.
For
yet a little while
, and the wicked shall
not be:
yea
, thou shalt
diligently
consider
his place, and it shall
not be
.

the humble
do
possess
the land,
And they
have
delighted
themselves In the abundance of peace.
But
the meek
shall
inherit
the earth;
and shall
delight
themselves in the abundance of peace.
The wicked is
devising
against the righteous
, And gnashing
against
him his teeth.
The wicked plotteth
against the just
, and gnasheth
upon
him with
his teeth.
The Lord doth
laugh at him ,
For He hath
seen
that his day cometh
.
The LORD shall
laugh at him :
for he seeth
that his day is
coming
.
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
.
The wicked have
drawn
out
the
sword
, and have bent
their bow, to cast
down
the poor and needy, and
to slay
such
as
be
of upright
conversation
.
Their sword doth
enter into their own heart, And their bows are
shivered
.
Their sword shall
enter into their own heart, and their bows shall
be
broken
.
Better
`is'
the
little of
the
righteous ,
Than the store
of many wicked.
A
little that
a
righteous man
hath
is
better
than the riches
of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked are
shivered,
And
Jehovah
is
sustaining
the righteous.
For the arms of the wicked shall
be
broken:
but
the LORD
upholdeth
the
righteous.

knoweth the days of the perfect,
And their inheritance is
--
to
the
age
.

LORD
knoweth the days of the upright:
and their inheritance shall
be
for
ever
.

not ashamed in a
time
of
evil ,
And in days of famine they are
satisfied.
They shall
not be
ashamed in the
evil time:
and in the
days of famine they shall
be
satisfied.
But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah,
As the preciousness
of lambs ,
Have
been
consumed,
In
smoke they have
been
consumed
.
But the wicked shall
perish, and the enemies of the
LORD
shall
be
as the fat
of lambs :
they
shall
consume;
into
smoke shall
they consume
away
.
The wicked is
borrowing
and
repayeth
not
, And the righteous is
gracious
and giving
.
The wicked borroweth
, and payeth
not
again:
but
the righteous sheweth
mercy,
and giveth
.
For His
blessed ones
do
possess
the land,
And His
reviled
ones
are
cut off.
For such
as
be
blessed of
him
shall
inherit
the earth;
and they
that
be
cursed
of
him
shall
be
cut off.

Jehovah
`are'
the steps of a man ,
They
have
been
prepared,
And his way he
desireth
.

man are
ordered
by
the
LORD:

is
sustaining
his hand.
Though
he fall
, he shall
not be
utterly
cast down :
for the
LORD
upholdeth
him
with
his hand.
Young
I have been ,
I
have
also
become
old
, And I
have not seen the righteous forsaken, And
his seed seeking
bread.
I have been young
, and now
am
old;
yet

the
day
he is gracious
and
lending
, And his seed `
is '
for
a
blessing
.
He is ever
merciful
, and lendeth;
and
his seed is blessed
.
Turn
aside
from evil, and do good ,
and dwell to
the
age
.
Depart
from evil, and do good ;
and dwell for
evermore
.
For Jehovah

doth
not forsake
His saintly
ones,
To
the
age
they have
been
kept,
And
the seed of the wicked is
cut off.

LORD
loveth

of
his steps shall

The wicked is
watching
for
the righteous, And is
seeking
to put
him to
death
.
The wicked watcheth
the righteous, and seeketh
to slay
him.
Jehovah
doth
not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in
his
being
judged.
The
LORD
will
not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when
he
is
judged.
Look
unto
Jehovah
, and keep His way, And He doth
exalt thee to possess
the land ,
In
the wicked being
cut off --
thou seest!
Wait
on
the
LORD
, and keep his way, and he shall
exalt thee to inherit
the land :
when
the wicked are
cut off ,
thou shalt
see
it.
I have seen the wicked terrible
, And spreading as
a green native
plant,
I have seen the wicked in
great
power
, and spreading himself
like
a green bay
tree.
And
he passeth
away, and lo, he is
not, And
I seek
him, and
he is
not found !
Yet
he passed
away, and ,
lo, he was
not :
yea
, I sought
him, but
he could
not be
found .

the perfect, and see
the upright ,
For the latter
end of each
`
is '
peace.

the
transgressors shall
be
destroyed together :
the end of the wicked shall
be
cut off.

is '
from
Jehovah,
Their strong
place
in a
time of adversity
.
But
the salvation of the righteous is of
the
LORD:
he
is
their strength
in the
time of trouble
.
And Jehovah
doth
help them and deliver them ,
He delivereth
them from the wicked, And saveth
them, Because they trusted
in Him !
And the
LORD
shall
help them ,
and deliver them :
he shall
deliver
them from the wicked, and save
them, because they trust
in him .
