Psalm 37:7

Instruction In Wisdom

⁶ And he will make your righteousness be seen like the light, and your cause like the shining of the sun. ⁷ Take your rest in the Lord, waiting quietly for him; do not be angry because of the man who does well in his evil ways, and gives effect to his bad designs. ⁸ Put an end to your wrath and be no longer bitter; do not give way to angry feeling which is a cause of sin.
