7 Be subject to the Lord and pray to him. Do not choose to compete with him who prospers in his way, with the man who does injustice.
8 Cease from wrath and leave behind rage. Do not choose to imitate the malicious.
9 For those who are malicious will be exterminated. But those who remain with the Lord, these will inherit the land.
10 Yet still a little while, and the sinner will not be. And you will search his place and find nothing.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth, and they will delight in the multitude of peace.
12 The sinner will observe the just, and he will gnash his teeth over him.
13 But the Lord will laugh at him: for he knows in advance that his day will come.
