Il giusto e l’empio

1 Di Davide. Non adirarti a causa dei malvagi; non avere invidia di quelli che agiscono perversamente; 2 perché presto saranno falciati come il fieno e appassiranno come l’erba verde. 3 Confida nel Signore e fa’ il bene; abita il paese e pratica la fedeltà. 4 Trova la tua gioia nel Signore ed egli appagherà i desideri del tuo cuore. 5 Riponi la tua sorte nel Signore; confida in lui, ed egli agirà. 6 Egli farà risplendere la tua giustizia come la luce e il tuo diritto come il sole di mezzogiorno. 7 Sta’ in silenzio davanti al Signore, e aspettalo; non adirarti per chi prospera nelle sue imprese, per l’uomo che ha successo nei suoi malvagi progetti. 8 Cessa dall’ira e lascia lo sdegno; non adirarti, ciò spingerebbe anche te a fare il male. 9 Poiché i malvagi saranno sterminati; ma quelli che sperano nel Signore possederanno la terra. 10 Ancora un po’ e l’empio scomparirà; tu osserverai il luogo dove si trovava, ed egli non ci sarà più. 11 Ma gli umili erediteranno la terra e godranno di una gran pace. 12 L’empio tende insidie al giusto e digrigna i denti contro di lui. 13 Il Signore ride dell’empio, perché vede avvicinarsi il giorno della sua rovina. 14 Gli empi hanno tratto la spada e teso il loro arco per abbattere il misero e il bisognoso, per sgozzare quelli che vanno per la retta via. 15 La loro spada penetrerà nel loro cuore e i loro archi si spezzeranno. 16 Il poco del giusto vale più dell’abbondanza degli empi. 17 Perché le braccia degli empi saranno spezzate; ma il Signore sostiene i giusti. 18 Il Signore conosce i giorni degli uomini integri; la loro eredità durerà in eterno. 19 Non saranno confusi in tempo di sventura, ma saranno saziati in tempo di fame. 20 Gli empi periranno; i nemici del Signore, come grasso d’agnelli, saranno consumati e andranno in fumo. 21 L’empio prende in prestito e non restituisce; ma il giusto ha pietà e dona. 22 Chi è benedetto da Dio erediterà la terra, ma chi è maledetto sarà sterminato. 23 I passi dell’onesto sono guidati dal Signore; egli gradisce le sue vie. 24 Se cade, non è però abbattuto, perché il Signore lo sostiene prendendolo per mano. 25 Io sono stato giovane e sono anche divenuto vecchio, ma non ho mai visto il giusto abbandonato, né la sua discendenza mendicare il pane. 26 Tutti i giorni è pietoso e dà in prestito, la sua discendenza è benedetta. 27 Allontànati dal male e fa’ il bene; dimorerai nel paese per sempre. 28 Poiché il Signore ama la giustizia e non abbandona i suoi santi; essi sono conservati in eterno; ma la discendenza degli empi sarà sterminata. 29 I giusti erediteranno la terra e l’abiteranno per sempre. 30 La bocca del giusto esprime parole sagge e la sua lingua parla con giustizia. 31 La legge di Dio è nel suo cuore; i suoi passi non vacilleranno. 32 L’empio spia il giusto e cerca di farlo morire. 33 Il Signore non l’abbandona nelle sue mani e non lo condanna quando egli viene giudicato. 34 Spera nel Signore e segui la sua via; egli ti esalterà perché tu possieda la terra e veda lo sterminio degli empi. 35 Ho visto l’uomo malvagio e prepotente ergersi come albero verdeggiante sul suolo natìo, 36 ma poi è scomparso, ed ecco, non c’è più; io l’ho cercato, ma non si è più trovato. 37 Osserva l’uomo integro e considera l’uomo retto, perché l’uomo di pace avrà una discendenza. 38 Ma tutti i malvagi saranno distrutti; la discendenza degli empi sarà sterminata. 39 La salvezza dei giusti proviene dal Signore; egli è la loro difesa in tempo d’angoscia. 40 Il Signore li aiuta e li libera; li libera dagli empi e li salva, perché si sono rifugiati in lui.

Psalm 37

1 Von David. Entrüste dich nicht über die Übeltäter, beneide nicht die, welche Böses tun! (Prov 23,17; Prov 24,19) 2 Denn wie das Gras werden sie schnell verdorren und wie das grüne Kraut verwelken. (Sal 92,8; Sal 129,6) 3 Vertraue auf den HERRN und tue Gutes; wohne im Land und hüte Treue; (1P 4,19) 4 und habe deine Lust am HERRN, so wird er dir geben die Bitte deines Herzens. (Lu 11,9; 1G 3,22) 5 Befiehl dem HERRN^[1] deinen Weg und vertraue auf ihn, so wird er handeln 6 und wird deine Gerechtigkeit hervortreten lassen wie das Licht und dein Recht wie den Mittag. (Giob 11,17; Is 58,8) 7 Schweige vor dem HERRN und harre auf ihn! Entrüste dich nicht über den, dessen Weg gelingt, über den Mann, der böse Pläne ausführt! (Sal 27,14; Lam 3,25) 8 Lass ab vom Zorn und lass den Grimm! Entrüste dich nicht! ⟨Es führt⟩ nur zum bösen ⟨Handeln⟩. (Ro 12,19) 9 Denn die Übeltäter werden ausgerottet; aber die auf den HERRN hoffen, die werden das Land besitzen. (De 5,33; Sal 25,13; Is 57,13; Mal 3,19; Mat 5,5)

De 5,33Sal 25,13Is 57,13Mal 3,19Mat 5,5

10 Noch kurze ⟨Zeit⟩, und der Gottlose ist nicht mehr; und siehst du dich um nach seiner Stätte, so ist er nicht ⟨mehr da⟩. (Giob 20,5) 11 Aber die Sanftmütigen werden das Land besitzen und werden ihre Lust haben an Fülle von Heil^[2]. (De 5,33; Sal 25,13; Is 57,13; Mat 5,5)

De 5,33Sal 25,13Is 57,13Mat 5,5

12 Der Gottlose sinnt gegen den Gerechten, und mit seinen Zähnen knirscht er gegen ihn. (Sal 35,16) 13 Der Herr lacht über ihn, denn er sieht, dass sein Tag kommt. (Sal 2,4; Is 2,12) 14 Die Gottlosen haben das Schwert gezogen und ihren Bogen gespannt, um zu fällen den Elenden und Armen, hinzuschlachten die, die aufrichtig wandeln. (Sal 11,2) 15 Ihr Schwert wird in ihr eigenes Herz dringen, und ihre Bogen werden zerbrochen. (Sal 34,22; Sal 46,10; Sal 76,4) 16 Besser das Wenige des Gerechten als der Überfluss vieler Gottloser. (Prov 16,8) 17 Denn die Arme der Gottlosen werden zerbrochen, aber der HERR stützt die Gerechten. (Sal 10,15; Is 41,10) 18 Der HERR kennt die Tage der Rechtschaffenen, und ihr Erbteil wird ewig bestehen; (Sal 1,6; Prov 2,21; Is 60,21) 19 sie werden nicht zuschanden zur Zeit des Unglücks, und in den Tagen des Hungers werden sie gesättigt. (Sal 33,19; Prov 10,3) 20 Denn die Gottlosen werden umkommen, und die Feinde des HERRN – wie die Pracht der Auen schwinden sie, sie schwinden dahin als Rauch. (Sal 68,3) 21 Der Gottlose borgt und zahlt nicht zurück; der Gerechte aber ist gütig und gibt. (Mat 5,42) 22 Denn die von ihm Gesegneten werden das Land besitzen, und die von ihm Verfluchten werden ausgerottet. (De 5,33; Sal 25,13; Is 57,13; Mat 5,5)

De 5,33Sal 25,13Is 57,13Mat 5,5

23 Vom HERRN her werden eines Mannes Schritte gefestigt, und an seinem Weg hat er Gefallen; (Sal 40,3; 1P 5,10) 24 fällt er, so wird er doch nicht hingestreckt, denn der HERR stützt seine Hand. (Sal 94,18; Sal 145,14; Prov 24,16) 25 Ich bin jung gewesen und bin alt geworden, doch nie sah ich einen Gerechten verlassen, noch seine Nachkommen um Brot betteln; (Eb 13,5) 26 immer^[3] ist er gütig und leiht, und seine Nachkommen ⟨werden⟩ zum Segen. (Sal 112,5) 27 Lass ab vom Bösen und tue Gutes, so wirst du für immer ⟨im Lande⟩ wohnen! (Sal 34,15; 1G 2,17) 28 Denn der HERR liebt Recht und wird seine Getreuen nicht verlassen;^[4] ewig werden sie bewahrt^[5], und die Nachkommenschaft der Gottlosen wird ausgerottet. (Sal 11,7; 1P 1,5) 29 Die Gerechten werden das Land besitzen und für immer darin wohnen. (De 5,33; Sal 25,13; Prov 2,21; Is 57,13; Is 60,21; Mat 5,5)

De 5,33Sal 25,13Prov 2,21Is 57,13Is 60,21Mat 5,5

30 Der Mund des Gerechten spricht Weisheit aus, und seine Zunge redet Recht; (Prov 10,20) 31 die Weisung seines Gottes ist in seinem Herzen, seine Schritte werden nicht wanken. (De 6,6; Sal 40,9; Is 51,7) 32 Der Gottlose lauert auf den Gerechten und sucht, ihn zu töten; (Sal 56,7; Lu 6,7) 33 ⟨doch⟩ der HERR lässt ihn nicht in seiner Hand und lässt ihn nicht verurteilen, wenn man ihn richtet. 34 Harre auf den HERRN und halte seinen Weg ein, und er wird dich erhöhen, das Land zu besitzen. Wenn die Gottlosen ausgerottet werden, wirst du zusehen. (De 5,33; Sal 25,13; Sal 54,9; Sal 91,8; Sal 92,12; Sal 112,8; Prov 20,22; Is 57,13; Mat 5,5)

35 Ich habe einen Gottlosen gesehen, gewalttätig und^[6] sich erhebend wie eine üppige Zeder^[7]; 36 und man ging vorbei, siehe, da war er nicht mehr; und ich suchte ihn, doch er war nicht zu finden. (Giob 20,5) 37 ^[8] Achte auf den Rechtschaffenen und sieh auf den Redlichen^[9]; denn die Zukunft für einen ⟨solchen⟩ Mann ist Frieden^[10]; 38 die ⟨von Gott⟩ Abgefallenen^[11] aber werden allesamt vertilgt, die Zukunft^[12] der Gottlosen wird abgeschnitten. 39 Doch die Hilfe^[13] der Gerechten ⟨kommt⟩ vom HERRN, der ist ihre Bergfestung zur Zeit der Not; (Sal 3,9; Sal 9,10; Sal 28,7; Sal 62,2)

1 A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. 3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. 5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. 6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. 7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. 8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. 9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be : yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be . 11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. 12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. 13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. 14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. 15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken. 16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked. 17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous. 18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. 19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. 20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away. 21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. 22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. 23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. 26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed. 27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. 28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. 29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. 30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. 31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. 32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. 33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. 34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it . 35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. 36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found. 37 Mark the perfect man , and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace. 38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off. 39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble. 40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
