2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Rest 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.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.

24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
