Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him;
    fret not yourself over him who prospers in his way,
    over the man who carries out evil devices!

Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath!
    Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.

10 Yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more;
    though you look well at his place, he will not be there.

    and gnashes his teeth at him;
13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
    for he sees that his day is coming.
