^{Tools

^(a)Rest in the Lord and ^(A)wait ^(b)patiently for Him;
^(B)Do not fret because of him who ^(C)prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.

Cease from anger and ^(D)forsake wrath;
Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing.

^{Tools

For ^(E)evildoers will be cut off,
But those who wait for the Lord, they will ^(F)inherit the land.
