Psalm 37C: Psalm 37:16-22

St. Michel's, C.M.D. [high C]

10. 16 The little that the righteous has
Is more and better far
Than great abundance many have
Who wholly wicked are.
17 For wicked arms shall broken be;
The LORD the just sustains.
18 The LORD knows days of perfect men;
Their heritage remains.

11. 19 They shall not be ashamed when they
The time of evil see;
And when the days of famine come
They satisfied shall be.
20 But wicked men, Jehovah's foes,
Like meadow flowers are they;
And they shall vanish; as does smoke
They all shall fade away.

12. 21 The wicked borrows, but his debt
He never does repay;
Where-as the righteous gracious is
And freely gives away.
22 For those who have been blessed by Him
Inherit shall the land;
And those who have been cursed by Him,
Cut off, shall no more stand.
