Psalm 37:37

Bible in Basic English 1965

Give attention to the good man, and take note of the upright; because the end of that man is peace.

See the chapter Copy

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. He was without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil.

The sinner is overturned in his evil-doing, but the upright man has hope in his righteousness.

And the work of righteousness will be peace; and the effect of an upright rule will be to take away fear for ever.

For I am conscious that in a short time I will have to put off this tent of flesh, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
