Psalm 37:34-36

English Standard Version

^34 (A)Wait for the Lord and keep his way,
    and he will exalt you to inherit the land;
    you will look on ^(B)when the wicked are cut off.

^35 (C)I have seen a wicked, ruthless man,
    spreading himself like ^(D)a green laurel tree.^[a]
36 But he passed away,^[b] and behold, ^(E)he was no more;
    though I sought him, he could not be found.
