Psalms 37:12-19 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. The wicked plans evil against the righteous, and gnashes at him with his teeth.

13. The Lord laughs at him, for he sees that his day is coming.

14. The wicked have drawn the sword and have bent their bow to throw down the poor and the needy, to kill those upright in their way.

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

16. The little belonging to the righteous is better than the wealth of many wicked.

17. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but Yahweh supports the righteous.

18. Yahweh knows the days of the blameless, and their inheritance will be forever.

19. They will not be put to shame in distressing times, and in the days of famine they will be satisfied.
