5 Entrega o teu caminho ao SENHOR; confia nele, e ele agirá,

6 e manifestará a tua justiça como a luz, e o teu direito como o sol do meio-dia.

7 Descansa no SENHOR, e espera nele; não te irrites contra aquele cujo caminho prospera, [nem] com o homem que planeja maldades.

8 Detém a ira, abandona o furor; não te irrites de maneira alguma para fazer o mal.

9 Porque os malfeitores serão exterminados; mas os que esperam no SENHOR herdarão a terra.
