Psalm 49:16

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

Be thou not then afraid when one enriched thou dost see, Nor when the glory of his house advanced is on high:

See the chapter Copy

Rest in the Lord, and patiently wait for him: do not fref For him who, prosp'ring in his way, success in sin doth get.

For evil-doers fret thou not thyself unquietly; Nor do thou envy bear to those that work iniquity.

Amidst those days that evil be, why should I, fearing, doubt? When of my heels th' iniquity shall compass me about.
