Psalms 37

David exhorts the righteous not to fret or envy the wicked, whose temporary success will vanish like smoke, while those who trust in YHWH and commit their ways to Him will inherit the land forever.[1][2] The psalm emphasizes that YHWH upholds the righteous through their struggles, protects them from their enemies, and grants them an enduring inheritance, whereas the wicked will be cut off and destroyed.[1][3]
