 [34 ](/kjv/psalms/37/34) 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 ](/kjv/psalms/37/35) I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.*
 
 [36 ](/kjv/psalms/37/36) Yet he passed away, and, lo, he *was* not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
 
 [37 ](/kjv/psalms/37/37) Mark the perfect *man*, and behold the upright: for the end of *that* man *is* peace.

 [39 ](/kjv/psalms/37/39) But the salvation of the righteous *is* of the LORD: *he is* their strength in the time of trouble.
 
 [40 ](/kjv/psalms/37/40) And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
