Psalm 37 (Cont'd.)

THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

I have been young, and now am old;
Yet I have not seen the righteous
  forsaken.
Nor his descendants begging bread.
He is ever merciful, and lends.
And his descendants are blessed.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

I held my youth, and now am aged.
I have not seen the good man cast
  aside.
Nor his loved ones hungry.
He is full of kindness, and never deserts
His loved ones are Christed.. 

THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

Depart from evil and do good;
And dwell forevermore
For the Lord loves justice
And does not forsake His saints.
They are preserved forever.
But the descendants of the wicked shall
  be cut off.
The righteous shall inherit the land.
And dwell in it forever.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

Leave the naysayers and  do service
And live
For the Holy One gazes with fondness
 on those who help the downtrodden.
They are enshrined forever
But the offspring of the naysayers shall
  be no more
The good man or woman shall inherit the earth
And live in it abundantly.

THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

The mouth of the righteous speaks
  wisdom,
And his tongue talks of justice.
The law of his God is in his heart.
None of his steps shall slide.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

The words of the just man are
  honored.
And his lips form the perfect thought
The love of his God is ever in his mind
His path is forever clear. 

THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

The wicked watches the righteous,
And seeks to slay him.
The Lord  will not leave him in his hand.
Nor condemn him when he is judged.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

The naysayer watches the just man.
And plots against him.
The Lord watches over him
 - and will not cast him away.

THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

Wait on the Lord,
And keep His way.
And He sahll exalt you to inherit the
  land;
When the wicked are cut off, you shall
  see it.
I have seen the wicked in great power,
And spreading himself like a native green
  tree.
Yet he passed away, and behold he was

  no more.
Indeed I sought him, but he could not be
  found.


PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

Keep vigil with the Lord
and  obey his rules.
You shall be put on high, and riches will
 be yours.
When the naysayers are cast down, you
  shall clap your hands.
The unjust have had their way
And his power was vast
Yet he too is gone, and nowhere to be found
In fact I looked for him, he was nowhere around.


THE PSALMIST PRAYS:

Mark the blameless man, and observe the
  upright;
For the future of that man is peace.
But the transgressors shall be destroyed
 together;
The future of the wicked shall be cut off.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:

The just man exudes peace
And his future is guaranteed.
But the evil one is tormented.
And his future is blighted.


THE PSALMIST PRAYS:
But the salvation of the righteous is from
  the Lord;
He is their strength in the time of trouble;
He shall deliver them from the wicked,
And save them.
Because they trust in him.

PSALMIST DORIS PRAYS:
But the happiness of the honest man
  is guaranteed by the Lord.
He is their anchor in the storm.
He shall keep them safe from the naysayer.
And protect them.
For they have sat at the same dinner
 table with the Lord and shared the breaking
 of the bread.
Their loyalty is unique.
