Psalms 37 — Context

The little which the good man has is better than the wealth of evil-doers.

For the arms of the evil-doers will be broken: but the Lord is the support of the good.

The days of the upright are numbered by the Lord, and their heritage will be for ever.

They will not be shamed in the evil time, and in the days when all are in need of food they will have enough.

But the wrongdoers will come to destruction, and the haters of the Lord will be like the fat of lambs, they will be burned up; they will go up in smoke, and never again be seen.

The sinner takes money and does not give it back; but the upright man has mercy, and gives to others.

Those who have his blessing will have the earth for their heritage; but those who are cursed by him will be cut off.
