GRudge not to see the wicked men, in wealth to florish styll: Nor yet enuie suche as to ill, haue bent and set their will. [verse 2] For as grene gras & florishing herbes, are cut and wither awaye: So shall theyr great prosperitie, sone passe, fade, and decay.

[verse 3] Trust thou therfore in God alone, to do well geue thy minde: So shalt thou haue the land as thyne, and there sure foode shalt find. [verse 4] In God set all thy harts delyte, and loke what thou wouldst haue: Or els canst wish in all the worlde, thou nedest it not to craue.

[verse 5] Cast both thy selfe and thyne affayres, on God with perfect trust: And thou shalt see with patience, theffect both sure and iust. [verse 6] The perfect life and godly name, he will cleare as the light: So that the sunne, euen at none daies, shall not shine halfe so bryght.

[verse 7] Be still therfore, and stedfastly, on God see thou wayte then:

Nor shrinking for the prosperous state, of leude and wicked men. [verse 8] Shake of despite, enuy and hate, at least in any wise: Their wicked steppes, auoyd and flie, and folow not their guise.

[verse 9] For euery wicked man, will God, destroy both more and lesse: But suche as trust in him are sure, the lande for to posses. [verse 10] Watch but a whyle, and thou shalt see, no more the wicked trayne: No not so muche, as house or place, where once he did remayne.
