American Standard Version
"Better is a little that the righteous hath Than the abundance of many wicked. "
— Psalms 37:16, American Standard Version
“A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.”
“Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked.”
“The little bit that a godly man owns is better than the wealth of many evil men,”
“For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.”
“The little which the good man has is better than the wealth of evil-doers.”
“A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.”
The Lord will laugh at him; For he seeth that his day is coming.
The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in the way.
Their sword shall enter into their own heart, And their bows shall be broken.
Better is a little that the righteous hath Than the abundance of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; But Jehovah upholdeth the righteous.
Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever.
They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
