Psalms 37:13-22 English Revised Version (ERV)

13. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.

14. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as be upright in the way:

15. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.

16. Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.

17. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.

18. The LORD knoweth the days of the perfect: and their inheritance shall be for ever.

19. They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

20. But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the excellency of the pastures: they shall consume; in smoke shall they consume away.

21. The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.

22. For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the land; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
