Psalms 37:8 in Context — Psalms 37
6 Il fera paraître ta justice comme la lumière, Et ton droit comme le soleil à son midi.
7 Garde le silence devant l’Éternel, et espère en lui; Ne t’irrite pas contre celui qui réussit dans ses voies, Contre l’homme qui vient à bout de ses mauvais desseins.
8 Laisse la colère, abandonne la fureur; Ne t’irrite pas, ce serait mal faire.
9 Car les méchants seront retranchés, Et ceux qui espèrent en l’Éternel posséderont le pays.
10 Encore un peu de temps, et le méchant n’est plus; Tu regardes le lieu où il était, et il a disparu.
