Psalms 36:5-16 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. Commit thy way to the Lord, and trust in him, and he will do it.

6. And he will bring forth thy justice as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

7. Be subject to the Lord and pray to him Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things.

8. Cease from anger, and leave rage; have no emulation to do evil.

9. For the evildoers shall be cut off: but they that wait upon the Lord shall inherit the land.

10. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it.

11. But the meek shall inherit the land, and shall delight in abundance of peace.

12. The sinner shall watch the just man: and shall gnash upon him with his teeth.

13. But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foreseeth that his day shall come.

14. The wicked have drawn out the sword: they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart.

15. Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken.

16. Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.
