37:1 Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong;
37:2 for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.
37:3 Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
37:4 Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
37:5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this:
37:6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.
37:7 Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.
37:8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret leads only to evil.
37:9 For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.
37:10 A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found.
37:11 But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity.
37:12 The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them;
37:13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming.
37:14 The wicked draw the sword and bend the bow to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those whose ways are upright.
37:15 But their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.
37:16 Better the little that the righteous have than the wealth of many wicked;
37:17 for the power of the wicked will be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous.
37:18 The blameless spend their days under the Lords care, and their inheritance will endure forever.
37:19 In times of disaster they will not wither; in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.
37:20 But the wicked will perish: Though the Lords enemies are like the flowers of the field, they will be consumed, they will go up in smoke.
37:21 The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously;
37:22 those the Lord blesses will inherit the land, but those he curses will be destroyed.
37:23 The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him;
37:24 though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.
37:25 I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.
37:26 They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be a blessing.
37:27 Turn from evil and do good; then you will dwell in the land forever.
37:28 For the Lord loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed; the offspring of the wicked will perish.
37:29 The righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever.
37:30 The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom, and their tongues speak what is just.
37:31 The law of their God is in their hearts; their feet do not slip.
37:32 The wicked lie in wait for the righteous, intent on putting them to death;
37:33 but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked or let them be condemned when brought to trial.
37:34 Hope in the Lord and keep his way. He will exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are destroyed, you will see it.
37:35 I have seen a wicked and ruthless man flourishing like a luxuriant native tree,
37:36 but he soon passed away and was no more; though I looked for him, he could not be found.
37:37 Consider the blameless, observe the upright; a future awaits those who seek peace.
37:38 But all sinners will be destroyed; there will be no future for the wicked.
37:39 The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord; he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
37:40 The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him.
Summary; David concludes Psalm 37 by describing the Lord as the believers’ salvation and refuge in times of trouble. He delivers them from the wicked. Jesus is the lord’s son, and we cannot get to the lord without going through Jesus. He is the light and gives salvation. It is important to know this and for us to tell you so you will understand it. Way back when King David was alive it was being prophesied back in the beginning. There are many books that have this subject. The old testament was cancelled by Jesus, but the information is helpful.
Closing Prayer; Heavenly Father we thank you for your word and the way you show through your word how to go and walk with you, and how to understand it. We pray that if anyone needs help they will get help through the Holy Spirit through you. We pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Prayer of Salvation: Which is how you ask to become a child of Our Heavenly Father. Lord Jesus, I confess my sins and ask for your forgiveness. Please come into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Take complete control of my life and help me to walk in Your footsteps daily by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for saving me and I know you will answer my prayers. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
