Rejoice in the Lord

(1 Kings 2:1-9)
1
Don’t fret because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness.
2
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb.
3
Trust in the LORD, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.
4
Also delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5
Commit your way to the LORD. Trust also in him, and he will do this:
6
he will make your righteousness shine out like light, and your justice as the noon day sun.
7
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Don’t fret; it leads only to evildoing.
9
For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more. Yes, though you look for his place, he isn’t there.
11
But the humble shall inherit the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
12
The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.
13
The Lord will laugh at him, for he sees 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 kill those who are upright on the path.
15
Their sword shall enter into their own heart. Their bows shall be broken.
16
Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked.
17
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD upholds the righteous.
18
The LORD knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever.
19
They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20
But the wicked shall perish. The enemies of the LORD shall be like the beauty of the fields. They will vanish— vanish like smoke.
21
The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously.
22
For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.
23
A man’s steps are established by the LORD. He delights in his way.
24
Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for the LORD holds him up with his hand.
25
I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.
26
All day long he deals graciously, and lends. His offspring is blessed.
27
Depart from evil, and do good. Live securely forever.
28
For the LORD loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
29
The righteous shall inherit the land, and live in it forever.
30
The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom. His tongue speaks justice.
31
The law of his God is in his heart. None of his steps shall slide.
32
The wicked watch the righteous, and seek to kill him.
33
The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34
Wait for the LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
35
I have seen the wicked in great power, spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.
36
But he passed away, and behold, he was not. Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37
Mark the perfect man, and see the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace.
38
As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together. The future of the wicked shall be cut off.
39
But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
40
The LORD helps them and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked and saves them, because they have taken refuge in him.

Rejoice in the Lord

(1 Kings 2:1-9)
1
Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
2
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3
Trust in the Lord , and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.(a)
4
Delight thyself also in the Lord ; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5
Commit thy way unto the Lord ; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.(b)
6
And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
7
Rest in the Lord , and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.(c)
8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
9
For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord , they shall inherit the earth.
10
For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
11
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
12
The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.(d)
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, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.(e)
15
Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16
A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches 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 upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
19
They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: 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 fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.(f)
21
The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
22
For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
23
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord : and he delighteth in his way.(g)
24
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.
25
I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
26
He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.(h)
27
Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
28
For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
29
The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
30
The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
31
The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.(i)
32
The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
33
The Lord will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34
Wait on the Lord , and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
35
I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.(j)
36
Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
38
But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
39
But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord : he is their strength in the time of trouble.
40
And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
