Psalms 37:35-40 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

35. I have seen a wicked, violent man Spreading himself like a luxuriant tree in its native soil.

36. Then he passed away, and lo, he was no more; I sought for him, but he could not be found.

37. Mark the blameless man, and behold the upright; For the man of peace will have a posterity.

38. But transgressors will be altogether destroyed; The posterity of the wicked will be cut off.

39. But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their strength in time of trouble.

40. The Lord helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, Because they take refuge in Him.
