Psalms 37:3-11

³Get insurance with GOD and do a good deed, settle down and stick to your last.c

⁴Keep company with GOD, get in on the best.d

⁵Open up before GOD, keep nothing back; he''ll do whatever needs to be done:e

⁶He''ll validate your life in the clear light of day and stamp you with approval at high noon.f

⁷Quiet down before GOD, be prayerful before him. Don''t bother with those who climb the ladder, who elbow their way to the top.g

⁸Bridle your anger, trash your wrath, cool your pipes--it only makes things worse.h

⁹Before long the crooks will be bankrupt; GOD-investors will soon own the store.i

¹⁰Before you know it, the wicked will have had it; you''ll stare at his once famous place and--nothing!j

¹¹Down-to-earth people will move in and take over, relishing a huge bonanza.k
