Refrain from anger and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.
The Book of Psalms
Fret Not Yourself
Topic: Overcoming Adversity
“Refrain from anger and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil. For the wicked shall be cut off; but those who wait for the Lord shall possess the land.
Yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look well at his place, he will not be there. But the meek shall possess the land, and delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
The wicked plots against the righteous, and gnashes his teeth at him; but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he sees his day is coming.
The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows, to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those who walk uprightly; their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.”
