Do not be enviousof evilmen,Nordesireto be with them;
Restin the LORDand waitpatientlyfor Him; Do not fretbecause of him who prospersin his way,Because of the manwho carriesout wickedschemes.
Do not envya manof violenceAnd do not chooseanyof his ways.
Do not let your heartenvysinners,But [live] in the fearof the LORDalways.
He who walkswith wisemenwill be wise,But the companionof foolswill sufferharm.
For I was enviousof the arrogant[As] I sawthe prosperityof the wicked.
Do not fretbecause of evildoers,Be not envioustoward wrongdoers.
Do not fretbecause of evildoersOr be enviousof the wicked;
Do not takemy soulaway[along] with sinners,Normy lifewith menof bloodshed,
How blessedis the manwhodoes not walkin the counselof the wicked,Norstandin the pathof sinners,Norsitin the seatof scoffers!
Do not enterthe pathof the wickedAnd do not proceedin the wayof evilmen.
Avoidit, do not passby it; Turnawayfrom it and passon.
