Psalms 37:7

⁵ Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will do it.

⁶ He will bring forth your righteousness like the dawn, your justice like the noonday sun.

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for Him; do not fret when men prosper in their ways, when they carry out wicked schemes.

⁸ Refrain from anger and abandon wrath; do not fret—it can only bring harm.

⁹ For the evildoers will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
