Psalms 37:32

30 The mouth of the righteous man utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.

31 The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not falter.

Though the wicked lie in wait for the righteous, and seek to slay them,

33 the LORD will not leave them in their power or let them be condemned under judgment.

34 Wait for the LORD and keep His way, and He will raise you up to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
